We use a compination of Anderton as a main text - despite some weaknesses it
provides a sound basis and has useful exercise material and is one volume. We
supplemnt this with some inforne A4 booklet type books for specific modules,
presentations and exercises from Bized and Tutor2U plus research based on
other sites, self produced case study material from newspapers and some single
copy reference book in the library. I don't know of a specific book which is
satisfactory for the Edexcel qualificaiton we take.
