This is an English medium book from Arihant Publications — All in One Science for CBSE Class 8, built on the new NCERT textbook Curiosity released in July 2025 and written as per the recommendations of NEP 2020. It offers complete study, complete practice and complete assessment in a single volume, with clear and concise theory, in-text and chapter exercises, sample question papers, and a mind map with competency-based questions in each chapter. The entire book is written in English in the Roman script.
The July 2025 release date printed on the cover is the detail worth checking before buying anything for Class 8 science this session. NCERT has replaced the middle-school science textbook, and Curiosity is not a light revision of what came before — the chapters are reorganised, the sequence differs, and the approach is activity-led with new in-text questions. A support book written for the earlier textbook will not line up with what the student is being taught, chapter by chapter. Any Class 8 science reference that does not name the new NCERT explicitly should be treated with suspicion right now.
The all-in-one structure suits the way the subject is actually studied through a year. Concise theory for first understanding, worked in-text and chapter exercises for the NCERT questions themselves, competency-based questions for the framing CBSE has moved towards, mind maps for revision, and sample papers for a timed check before an examination — the same book serves each stage rather than requiring three. The competency-based items matter particularly: NEP 2020 has pushed assessment towards situations to interpret and reasons to give rather than definitions to reproduce, and that shift is easier to absorb alongside the chapter than in the examination hall.
Class 8 science is also the base beneath Class 9 and 10, where these topics return with quantitative treatment. It is best used alongside the NCERT textbook and class teaching.

अरिहंत पब्लिकेशंस द्वारा प्रकाशित यह 'ऑल इन वन साइंस' CBSE कक्षा 8 हेतु है, जो जुलाई 2025 में जारी नई NCERT पाठ्यपुस्तक 'Curiosity' पर आधारित तथा NEP 2020 की संस्तुतियों के अनुरूप है। ध्यान दें: यह पुस्तक पूर्णतः अंग्रेज़ी भाषा एवं रोमन लिपि में है, हिन्दी में नहीं। इस सत्र में सबसे पहले यही देखना चाहिए, क्योंकि NCERT ने कक्षा 8 की विज्ञान पुस्तक बदल दी है — अध्यायों का क्रम, गतिविधि आधारित दृष्टिकोण एवं इन-टेक्स्ट प्रश्न सभी नए हैं, और पुरानी पुस्तक पर आधारित सहायक पुस्तक का अध्याय-क्रम ही मेल नहीं खाएगा। इसमें स्पष्ट एवं संक्षिप्त थ्योरी, इन-टेक्स्ट एवं अध्याय अभ्यासों के हल, प्रत्येक अध्याय में माइंड मैप एवं कॉम्पिटेंसी आधारित प्रश्न, तथा सैंपल प्रश्न-पत्र सम्मिलित हैं — अर्थात् समझना, अभ्यास एवं मूल्यांकन तीनों एक ही पुस्तक में। कक्षा 8 का विज्ञान कक्षा 9 एवं 10 का आधार है, अतः इसे NCERT पाठ्यपुस्तक एवं कक्षा-शिक्षण के साथ प्रयोग करें।
