Good books to revise for the Oxford MAT
Is there any good books similar in structure to the pearson edexcel maths textbook, where they split it up in topics in the spec and explain each part and provide questions for those parts aswell, but for the MAT.

Although this isn't a textbook, the MAT livestream materials match what you want pretty closely (see here). Each week covers a different topic, e.g. week 1 covers polynomials, week 2 covers algebra etc., and if you click on the worksheet it provides you with concise topic notes, some revision questions, and then some actual MAT questions which relate to that topic. Essentially this is structured like the Edexcel maths textbooks with the content at the start, then some questions, and then a 'mixed exercise' at the end consisting of actual exam questions.
Note that I don't recommend actually watching the livestream. Dr Munro is great, but he goes way too slowly through the material (even on x2 speed). Better to do the worksheets on your own, mark your answers using the solution sheets and IFF you can't figure out how to do a question and the solution sheet is not helpful, then go find the relevant bit in the MAT livestream.
Good luck.
