Ace your class with the help of CliffsNotes® To Go for Apple handheld devices. The brand you trust for fast, effective, and comprehensive literature review has been reinvented for the small screen to give you anywhere, anytime access to character, theme and plot summaries and analysis; interactive quiz features; and audio CramCasts covering the great works of literature.

In Ray Bradbury's Fahrenheit 451, you journey to the 24th century to an overpopulated world in which the media controls the masses, censorship prevails over intellect, and books are considered evil because they make people question and think. The story is told by Guy Montag, a fireman who burns books for a living. Ray Bradbury's ability to create psychologically complex and ambiguous characters like Guy Montag enabled science fiction to be taken seriously in the literary world.

Two distinct review modes in this app allow for a more customizable study experience.

  • Prescriptive "Cram Plan," created by the experts at CliffsNotes, orders the content of the app to turn just five minutes into an effective study session
  • e-Reader interface provides the app's complete content, similar to the way you'd see it in the printed CliffsNotes books

Additional features that make the most of the Multi-Touch User Interface and media capabilities of Apple handheld devices include:

  • Multiple-choice quiz to assess your mastery of the material
  • Text-highlighting to note important sections for further review
  • Interactive map links character associations and profiles for quick reference
  • Audio plot summaries that play in the background while you work your way through the rest of the app
