Children's ✦ Penny’s Take
Revise Modern World History for AQA Specification B
Alan Mendum · 2001
58/100
👎 Skip It
A solidly built GCSE revision guide for its era, but it is now nearly 25 years old and tied to a specification that no longer exists in its original form. Students sitting today's AQA exams will find the content misaligned with current requirements. As a curriculum text it served its purpose well once, but its shelf life has passed.
