With over 30 years of teaching science experience, Jeff K Smith wrote his brilliant high school science series Fabulous Physics, Cracking Chemistry and Brilliant Biology to address the ever-increasing need for suitable textbooks to go along with the teaching of science at school as well as to fill the void of easily understandable, well-written and enjoyable textbooks on these subject.

Even though the books are written at the level of UK Key Stage 3, that means students aged between 11 – 14 years, Jeff's years of teaching experience has empirically demonstrated that students struggling at higher levels, such as GCSEs (aged between 14 – 16 years) and A-Level (aged between 16 – 18 years), are unable to grasp the materials at their level without the understanding of lower-level material.

The concept is simple, how can one understand the advanced materials of a subject without first understanding the basics of the subject? 

What is unique about these textbooks is that they teach science with a focus on true literacy by ensuring that all key words of the subject are fully explained including their Latin, Greek or Arabic roots. Each book also comes with the following:

• Hand-drawn and fun illustrations throughout.
• Definitions of science words with their Latin, Greek or Arabic roots and a full glossary.
• Exercises and drills to learn to THINK with the information and learn to apply the data. No rote learning.
