An obvious candidate to take to a desert island, along with Shakespeare and the Bible

An obvious candidate to take to a desert island, along with Shakespeare and the Bible * Daily Telegraph *Feel like you’ve forgotten everything you learned at school? Then this subject-by-subject guide, with tests, is for you * Observer *They write in a clear, brisk, no-nonsense style, and strike a perfect balance between seriousness and fun. It’s a glorious opportunity to dust the cobwebs from your brain * Mail on Sunday *Relentlessly jolly-hockey-sticks on 10 subjects from maths to PE * Independent *After just a few pages of this you will be reminded of forgotten facts. You may even end up teaching your child a thing or two * Sun *Irresistable * The Lady *A decent reference book – Alastair Mabbott * Herald *
