I have purchased, reviewed and used in class at least five textbooks written and/or recommended for standard and higher level IB Physics. All of these texts came recommended by other IB Physics teachers, supervisors, or the IB organization itself. When I first heard about Physics for the IB Diploma by Allum and Talbot, I immediately ordered a copy. I have found it to be the best IB Physics textbook I have come across to date. The material is exceptionally well organized to match exactly with the IB curriculum dot points. Each unit has a list of starting points at the beginning, a number of self-assessment questions throughout, and a very useful summary of knowledge list plus sample examination questions at the end. It is written in a fairly relaxed style with language accessible to high school students. I give Allum and Talbot's Physics for the IB Diploma my heartiest recommendation.
