I can buy only one of these two books:
1) Advanced Physics for You by Keith Johnson
http://www.amazon.co.uk/Advanced-Phy...hysics+for+you
2) Advanced Physics by Steve Adams
http://www.amazon.co.uk/Advanced-Phy...hysics+for+you
Which one have people used and which one should I buy?
Got a B at AS and looking to get an A overall at A2.
Edit: My exam board is OCR B so need the book which is the closest to that spec

If you do decide to buy Advanced Physics for You by Keith Johnson, I'd pay a little more and buy the new updated version here.

Although, have you bought the new version? Do you like it?

I think that book is updated to bring it in line with the new spec, I'm still on old spec so I need the older edition.

Nope, haven't bought it yet. Though I'm still debating whether to get this one (which our school recommends) or this one by CGP.
