Nav exams question

I see there are two PPL exams relating to Nav: 1. Navigation, and 2. Flight Planning and Performance. I'm after some guidance on the content of each - I tried looking at LASORS but it didn't help.

For the Navigation exam, I'm reading the Pooley's Air Pilot's Manual volume 3 called simply 'Air Navigation'. The book has four sections: 1) Basic Navigation Theory 2) Flight Planning 3) En-Route Navigation 4) En Route Navigation with Radio Aids.

Is the whole volume needed for the Navigation exam, or does some of it relate to the Flight Planning and Performance Exam? In the book, the Flight Planning section is only about 40 pages.
