Calculations in A-Level Chemistry By Jim Clark (TS 1974-1997) £29.89 Review from the Times Educational Supplement: “Calculations in A-Level Chemistry fills a gap in the market and provides excellent coverage of the calculations needed at A-Level. Chapters are clearly laid out, with plenty of worked examples, and there are helpful notes throughout.” Available at waterstones.com

This book grew out of Jim’s time as head of chemistry at Truro School. Jim had written several help sheets for his A-Level students based on the calculations they had found tricky. After he took early retirement, he turned them into a calculation book.
