Synopsis

Bill Bolton has combined his knowledge of the latest curriculum developments with his extensive experience as a successful author to write Basic Engineering: the first complete core text written specifically for GNVQ. His approach will be familiar to anyone who has used his popular range of engineering texts, and his tried-and-tested technique will make the GNVQ easier to get to grips with.
Basic Engineering covers the four mandatory units of the Intermediate GNVQ in a clear, accessible style, with numerous diagrams and worked examples. Questions at the end of each chapter aid students' learning, and multiple-choice sections provide valuable practice for the GNVQ tests.

About this title

Review
