This is a must resource for musicians and their teachers and anyone wishing to learn about the subject. With a wealth of pictures of composers and instruments etc. this makes a brilliant for just visual reference.
There is a section on each instrument of the orchestra with listening repertoire lists either for fun or study. This is an ideal source for research on "continuity and change in the orchestra" for the A level sylabus

In all an excellent and exciting book either to read or dip into! Need it? You'll probably find it here!
