Excellent study aid
When first presented with "measure for measure" from my teacher for A-level, my heart sank: i DESPISE studying shakespeare! however, when i recieved this study guide, i didnt realize what an interesting, relevent and contemporary paly measure for measure is! this guide takes you step-by-step through all the scenes, analyses the characters, gives contextual information (excellent for those doing coursework on the play) and even gives ideas for helpful tasks, such as where to view the first folio etc. a wonderful book, i would seriously recommend it to nayone studying shakespeare for A-Level.

A Great Help!!
Having been told that we were to study 'Measure for Measure' i wasntexactly looking forward to it. Having in the past found it difficult tounderstand fully Shakespeare's plays and with my up comming A level ithought i would shell out for a study guide, and to be honest i couldnthave survived without it. It provides extensive plot summaries and notesfor every scene as well as much appreciated characterisations andbackground information. Although it didnt make the study of the play easyit really did prove to be extremely beneficially and resourcefull.
