This edition of our successful series to support the Cambridge IGCSE Physics syllabus (0625) is fully updated for the revised syllabus for first examination from 2016. Mathematics is an integral part of scientific study, and one that students often find a barrier to progression in science. Students can find it difficult to apply maths knowledge to science scenarios, even if they have encountered the maths concept previously. The Maths Skills for Cambridge IGCSE Physics write-in workbook allows students to practise their maths skills in science contexts. This resource has been written in collaboration with the Association for Science Education (ASE), based on research carried out with the Nuffield Foundation. The accompanying teacher's guide provides support for teachers to teach mathematical concepts in science lessons.

In 1869, newspaper articles touted Aiken as a health and pleasure resort with the world's largest wooden hotel. Swirling social life and sporting action continued during the war years, when the women of society carried on local traditions. In 1950, Aiken was bustling with scientists and engineers who relocated to work at the Savannah River Site. The last half of the 20th century saw swelling crowds at polo matches, steeplechase races, fox hunts, golf courses, and cultural amusements. In the early 21st century, many Aiken sporting traditions mark milestone anniversaries. At the center of everything is Hitchcock Woods, a woodland paradise, pine-topped cathedral, and equestrian playground that remains open year-round. The Hitchcock Woods Foundation was established to safeguard this treasure within the heart of Aiken. The Aiken Horse Show, held each spring, and Blessing of the Hounds, held on Thanksgiving, are two of the most revered of Aiken's sporting traditions.
