Over the course of doing an AQA mathematics A Level I purchased around half a dozen books in addition to the ones specified by the college.I found this book to be by far the best all round pure maths book. Virtually all aspects of the pure maths modules were covered in excellent, relativly (atleast compared to other books) easy to understand detail along with well documented examples.
Most importantly for doing well in exams however is the thousands of well laid out practise questions & answers with about 30 or so normally devoted to each and every aspect along with hundreds of broader past exam questions at various intervals (good for sludging through in lengthy study periods before exams).
It should be known that most (probably all) A Level syllabuses contain modules such as descrete maths, mechanics, statistics etc. which the book does not fully cover.
Overall however I found that by spending many, many long hours going through the thousands of examples and questions provided largely by this book (escpecially in the weeks leading up to exams on pure modules), I was able to achieve an A beyond all my own expectations.
