Textbooks with answers for GCSE/A-level

I took Maths O-level and A-level years ago (1980's) and would
like to re-revise some of it as I can't even remember the basics.

Can anyone recommend any GCSE and A-level textbooks which
explain the course, give examples, followed by lots of practice
questions *with answers*.

I have seen a few for GCSE but they don't have answers. I want
a large textbook not those thin practice question books.

Thanks

David

GCSE:

Edexcel GCSE Mathematics by Johnson & Clough
(Higher Tier is the one we use.)

The answers are on an included CD.

A Level

Heinemann do a range of books for each of the modules, look at the Edexcel
website for module details, then then here: www.heinemann.co.uk for the
matching books.

There are others, they are just the ones we use.

Thanks for A-level tip too.

Out-of-print SMP textbooks In the 1980's I attended a British secondary school in Hong Kong, and in Form 1 through Form 3 we used certain School Mathematics Project (SMP) textbooks. I seem to recall that the books were about A5 in size, and were prominently labeled on the cover wi

A-Level Simultaneous Equation Question Hi I am working on A-Level exams. I know this question may seem trivial to some of you, but I'm hoping to get some help in any case from some sympathetic sole. The question is out of the cambridge press a-level mathematics core 1 & 2 text book. It reads a
