This volume contains brief, concise and to the point coverage of the IB syllabus for Physics. This guide
follows the syllabus exactly for the core material and all the option topics. It is intended as a review in the
last few weeks before the IB exams. The book assumes that the student has undertaken a regular two year
course in IB Physics and is about to take the exam. It is not intended to replace a course textbook during the
two year course – it is however complete and can be used along with a textbook as a quick reference to the
various parts of the syllabus. For a more detailed and in depth coverage of the topics in this book the reader
is referred to the textbook Physics for the IB Diploma, Fifth edition, Cambridge University Press.
