- The overall aim that students should gain the knowledge, awareness and skills-of-application necessary for sound scientific understanding and judgement.

- A practical emphasis on science as it affects our daily lives in the Caribbean, backed up by information about scientists and scientific phenomena unique to our region.

Features new to this edition include:

- New and revised activities and 'On your own' sections.

- Revised and extended summaries and questions at the end of each unit.

- Three end-of-term tests to evaluate student performance during the year.
