My textbook is co-written by Malcolm Surridge, who is the chief examiner. So if you want course-specific, that's where you want to go. :wink:

I dropped Business Studies at the end of last year. However, I found this book extremely good. It is written by the chief examiner of the whole course:

http://www.amazon.co.uk/Business-Studies-Ian-Marcouse/dp/0340811102/ref=pd_bbs_5/203-6729385-1346336?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1190837617&sr=8-5

Although I bought the AS version on the Unit 1 Revision Day, it is still a good book. Also, that book covers the whole of the A-level specification with AS material included.

I didn't like the book you are recommending as the other 1 has nice short sections and focuses on all four key areas.

And, the book that they are recommending to be bought with is another good book. It lists all the key terms of the whole course, and not just for AQA level. There is a shortened version of that textbook in a revision guide where it puts all the important information into 2/3 pages.

That's the one we got given at our college. It's quite good.
