Customer Reviews

A2 Sociology
Compared to the one written for AS, this is worse. Sentences are constructed in a complex way which makes the difficult to understand. There are 10 topics for one chapter and it is really hard to understand. I bought it because I got an A after studying its AS edition. But now I am disappointed with this book.
