Difficult Chapters

Most people find ‘Chapter 4 - How the United Kingdom is governed’ to be the most difficult chapter in the materials. This is hardly surprising since it contains a lot of information about government and politics.

At the other end of the scale, many people find ‘Chapter 2 - A changing society’ to be the easiest chapter to learn. This is partly because it is the shortest chapter in the book, but also because it contains understandable and relevant information about every day Britain and how it has changed over the years.
