Publisher's Synopsis

Get Ahead in Physics covers the essentials for GCSE science in a book you can start and finish - without falling asleep in the middle!

Each chapter is tied to a key topic for studying Physics; learn about:

- The Particle Theory of Matter
- Energy
- Radiation
- Electricity
- Newton's Laws
- Waves
- Electromagnetism
- and Cosmology


Along the way, hear fascinating TRUE stories of the Philosopher's Stone, radioactive energy drinks and a couple of levitating frogs… Each chapter ends with an "at a glance" bullet-point summary of the topic and a bonus section exploring fascinating extra-curricular science (everything from Schrödinger's cat to quantum mechanics!).

With words by The Times Science Editor Tom Whipple and brilliant pictures by James Davies, this book is designed to be used alongside your GCSE textbooks and revision guides - not only intended to help you revise for your exams, but to bring Physics to life in all its weirdness and wonder.
