Developed in cooperation with the International Baccalaureate®

Ensure full coverage of the updated syllabus with a coursebook that implements inquiry-based and conceptually-focused teaching and learning, written by highly experienced global authors.

- Prepare students for assessment with a range of options: exam-style questions, top tip boxes and hints to help avoid common mistakes.

- Integrate TOK into lessons and create opportunities for cross-curriculum study with case studies, real world examples and up-to-date data.

- Provide plenty of practise with activities, review questions and chapter summaries allowing students to recap themes and test knowledge.

- Enable students to feel confident in course terminology with ESL support, definitions, key terms and a glossary.
