Students and professionals bought more than 300,000 copies of previous editions! This new edition draws on the best mathematical tool now available to solve problems. It applies the vector approach for elegance and simplicity in theory and problems whenever appropriate. Other times, for similarly adequate solutions, scalar methods are preferred. This study guide complements class texts and proves excellent for solo study and brushing up.

Telling the Truth

Telling the truth is a difficult subject. Children discuss the issues: if lies and fibs are difficult, whether it is all right to tell lies to avoid hurting someone's feelings and why it is sometimes hard to tell the truth. A double page spread of notes for parents and teachers includes suggestions on how they can help a child manage difficult situations. The book is suitable for Key Stage 2 children.
