A highly successful general science course, the enduring popularity of Starting Science stems from its built-in differentiation, colourful, straightforward style, and its content-based approach. Key points include: specifically designed for use in mixed-ability classes; divided into units which are presented at three levels of difficulty; careful explanation of scientific concepts set in everyday contexts; and a range of questions for independent and class use.

Whenever he can, Alan Fraser likes to play his saxaphone. But at other times he's been an enthusiastic magician, a jug band washboard strummer, a stand-up comedian, a bit of a singer, a composer/bandleader, and the owner of his very own jazz club. There were some other jobs too, but they were all about money - and not much fun at all. He lives in Oxfordshire and is married with two children.
