  This foundation-edition pupil's book covers the essential content of the most popular GCSE syllabuses. It is part of a series that meets the requirements of the revised GCSE syllabuses. This text covers the needs of lower attainers. Its content is the same as that of the core book but has been simplified. The book covers international relations from World War I up to the recent history of South Africa. Interspersed with this narrative are depth studies, focusing on the USA from 1919 to 1941, Germany from 1919 to 1949, Russia from 1905 to 1941 and Britain from 1900 to 1951. At the end of each unit there is a section on exam practice, providing questions to help pupils consolidate information and prepare for revision. There are mark schemes in the accompanying teacher's resource pack, and advice from examiners. Many of the key issues, events and personalities of this century are covered, using source material. The series also contains core and foundation editions of Nazi Germany and Russia 1905-56 .
