heres what my lecturer gave me as our preparation for our exams.

Laughs all around. Wish he gave us some actual papers to do though.

Sounds like your lecturer has not given you a sufficently broad instruction or is worried that he has not explained parts of the subject well enough for your fellow students to answer correctly without lateral thinking outside of the subject.

Good luck and I recommend that you review your subject notes and examples from throughout the course and try writing your own papers with a friend and swap, answer it under exam conditions and then check the accuracy against the course information that you have. See where you and your friend go wrong and then go to a library and research the area you have got wrong. Or alternativly ask for further explanation from your lecturer on the area of your difficulty.

I would not bother with the book unless you want to utilise the ideas in your whole life and not just the exams. So you might want to think about what you want to do in life and if this is relavent to the book.
