AQA GCSE Religious Studies B: Philosophy of Religion in Society Reviews

"The picturesque way in which material is presented gives pupils a 'hands-on' opportunity to be involved in topics, instead of being met with huge areas of academic text with pretty pictures around... The text-book is pupil-friendly and we hope it will attract them to make progress on the work we set" David Dunning, Head of RE, Sherborne School
