A must-have for any youth, who plans to study/live in UK

This book is one of the best quick-reference books, I have ever read. Its format follows all the necessary rules: it is small and it is easy to use. This book covers every basic issue, that may arise before you live to UK or after you have already arrived there. Every topic (e.g. immigration requirements, banking, health, shopping and so on) discussed briefly, yet so precisely, that it will take you only a few munites to refresh your memory on the matter. It has three apendices that list all of the UK's higher education institutions by classification, all of the youth organizations you need to know about, and also many youth hostels and other types of affordable accommodation throughout UK. Last, but not least, this book even has a London subway map (more appropriately, "underground" or simply "the tube" as Londoners call their beloved type of public transportation) printed on the first page. So, put this book in your pocket, buy an airline ticket and you are ready for your trip to gool old London, whether you plan to study, live, or simply travel there.
