Is the 'A Level Physics by Roger Muncaster' suitable for 2018/2019 Syllabus?

[Kevin J]

I know that this book was first written back then, in fact the 1/2nd edition was published in the 80s, is this book still 'suitable' for today's/modern A level exams? I like studying physics that are more 'in-depth', but I don't want studying unnecessary 'information'(because some people said this book offers too much resources that don't even appear on the test.) So is this book still 'Suitable' by today's standard & syllabus?(I'm taking CIE A LEVEL)

If you like the author's style, then you will probably learn better from it than you would from a book that you don't particularly like. But be aware that any time you're trying to learn something you will necessarily learn stuff that you won't see on a test. There's more to learning than can be measured by a test, so you just have decide which is more important. I think both things are important, but as to which is more important, well, that's a personal choice.
