• Question: Feynman's work is undoubtedly the best read for any A-level physics student- it saved me in AS. But what about Biology and Chemistry? Any books you would recommend for the other sciences.

      Oh excellent question. Hmm I haven’t come across many books that are written quite like a Feynman book, as biology is quite a visual subject and having a good understanding of what makes up biolgical anatomy I would say the anatomy coloring books by Wynn Kapit. They are simple and advanced books that help visualise and remember parts for the anatomy spectrum. Chemistry I used chemistry in context as I found it to be very good for an overview of the topic. I think when looking into science you can go very deep in research but some general books are just too general. I think if you read and find a good overview of the topic but want to understand more, then try and research the experts in that field and they will mostly have written books on the topic.
