This year we are pleased to be able to show you someof our exciting new titles for Caribbean Schools, as wellas our best-sellers and wide range of existing books forschools in the Caribbean.

I am very pleased to be able to announce thepublication of Making IT Work (page 62), a newInformation Technology course for secondary schools.Along with IT for CSEC (which we published last year,see page 64), this means that Nelson Thornes can offerschools a fresh new look at IT throughout Secondaryschools.

We are also delighted by the success of Nelson Thornes

Shakespeare for CSEC. We published the first title inthis series, Macbeth, last year, and in this catalogue wehave added The Merchant of Venice (page 29).

In this year’s catalogue we are also announcing the new,3rd Edition of The Caribbean People (page 48), byLennox Honychurch. Lennox has completely revised andupdated this course and we are sure you will like whatyou see. The other new title you will see is Physics for

CSEC (page 45).

We have also published a new Maths Dictionary for

CSEC (page 33). Teachers will be only too aware of somestudents inability to grasp the language of Maths. Thisnew dictionary will help students develop theirunderstanding of maths which can be a complexvocabulary.
