Preface

The purpose of this book is to offer a concise and easy-to-understand textbook and exam preparation guide of the Edexcel AS Physics. This book is slim, with only 100 pages! But it covers almost all that you need to learn to crack the Edexcel AS Physics Unit 1 and Unit 2 exams. It can be used as a textbook for your AS physics courses. It is an excellent revision guide as well. The principles and terms are explained in very simple words and sentences. They are illustrated in the students' point of view, rather in the physicists or teachers' point of view. There are plenty of carefully designed diagrams and examples to illustrate difficult concepts. This work is written based on my teaching experience. During my teaching, I always tried to find the ways of instruction that are easy for the students to understand. I decide to put down the contents in the ways that my students found easiest to understand and memorize. You will find it a bit easier to understand some difficult physical concepts with this book compared to some other books. This book is written based on the specifications published by Edexcel and my study on the past papers. It is excellent for exam preparation. Contents of particular importance are highlighted in gray background. The examiners frequently request you to write down these sentences or use these formulae for calculations. You will find a great match between highlighted contents in this book and the exam paper questions! Finally, good luck.
