i already use heinemann at school and i want a second textbook. Any suggestions? it's good to have a different perspective. I think Heinemann goes off on a tangent quite a lot. Half the stuff in the textbook you don't even need, but I think their questions are good anyway.

Nup, stick with Heinemann. I use a different one at school, and trust me, you'd rather a tangent than not covering it at all...

btw, StudyOn is our prescribed, but I much prefer Heinemann.

I got to say, Nelson is really good with their diagrams. I just steal their diagrams to put them in my notes :). If you had to choose another textbook, I highly recommend Nelson. But Heinemann is always great to look back at :)
