Inside this guide

The table of contents should help you find information easily. In each chapter
we’ve included examples and tables, as well as definitions, fast facts and
driving tips to make the information as clear and easy to use as possible.
You’ll also find a ‘what you’ll learn’ section at the beginning of each chapter.
What you’ll learn provides a detailed breakdown of what’s covered in each
chapter. You can also go back to it after you’ve studied the chapter and use it
as a checklist to determine how well you’ve learned everything covered. Also,
you’ll find Review questions at the end of most chapters. You may want to
use them as you prepare for your test.
