This series has been written specifically for the GCSE Religious Studies specifications for AQA starting September 2001. The specifications drive the structure and content of the books which are presented in a double-page spread format throughout. Each book covers a popular option, allowing for the flexibility to choose the right resources for your students. Key terms define significant vocabulary from the specification to help students use the correct terminology; activities and tasks help students to use what they have learned and develop the key skills they need; and a page of exam-style questions at the end of each section boosts students' confidence and prepares them for the exam. Written for AQA Specification A, option 2B this book is suitable for use as a resource for half a full course GCSE. This text looks at the Roman Catholic Church and its traditions.
