This 110 page A4 revision guide is one of a series of low-cost downloads that has been produced for A level students. 

This guide is based around Option 5 from the Edexcel syllabus (but is of course usable by students following other courses too) and covers pollution and human health risk.

The booklet, which may be printed out and copied for all student to have, or which can be put onto the school learning platform, costs just £10 plus VAT.  It includes revision notes, sample answers and activities, covering all aspects of the global synoptic context, risks to human health, causes of health risk, pollution, and managing the health risk.

Throughout there are summaries of what the student needs to know, the key terms (epidemiology, infectious, degenerative, chronic, hereditary, endemic etc etc) and numerous illustrations to help the student understand key points.

The aim throughout is to help the student get to the core of the matter and grasp the basic elements of the subject, building up his/her knowledge and certainty around the subject.

A typical page centres on diseases associated with level of development of a country, and examines the disease, the causes and the symptoms of (by way of example) the Bilharzia Snail, mosquitoes and Guinea Worm. 

The volume is only available as a download – not as a printed book.
