Riassunto

Perplexed by Pythagoras? Undone by famous dates? Can’t tell your Magnesium from your Manganese? Then this is the book for you.

Divided into classroom subject-themed chapters, The Universal Crammer is packed full of key lessons that easily slip the mind once O-levels and GCSEs become a distant memory.

Flex your dormant brain muscles and see how much you can remember from those days of staring at the white board/black board (depending on whether you’re from the era of computers or exercise books).

The ideal nostalgia present for any know-it-all in the family.

Re-discover facts and theories, from geography to history, from maths to English, including:

· Remember LSD? No, not the illegal drug, but the geological process of long shore drift of course.

· Osmosis, meiosis, photosynthesis. All those similar sounding biological processes that ring a distant bell.

· Carpe diem the limit of your Latin? Declensions, conjugations and those latin tables you were made to learn.

· Mean, median and mode. Someone who’s stingy, mediocre, yet stylish?

· ‘I kicked the ball’. A classic S.V.O. sentence. S.V.O? Elementary my dear – the basics of the linguistic typology: subject; verb; object.
