This book goes well beyond the model answer guides currently on the market because it is both informative and instructional. Areas discussed include how to select, organize and compose an essay. The book provides students with a structured approach to the General paper essay. The mayor GP skills are clearly explained with the help of diagrams, student examples, analyses of past year examination questions and pertinent extracts from the examiner's reports on the General Paper (Paper 1) examination from the University of Cambridge Local Examinations Syndicate.
