The materials above are 'stand alone' so you will be able to study these subjects without having to buy the text books. However, there are a few instances where the Materials say 'see page number x' and these refer to pages in these books. They are particularly useful for Physics, a little less for Chemistry and not directly referred to in Biology at all.
