Textbook
open-in-new
<p>A textbook is a book containing a comprehensive compilation of content in a branch of <a href="/facts/Study_skills/Nj6snGyN">study</a> with the intention of explaining it. Textbooks are produced to meet the needs of educators, usually at educational institutions, but also of learners (who could be independent learners outside of formal education). Schoolbooks are textbooks and other books used in schools. Today, many textbooks are published in both print and digital formats. </p>
