What are textbooks?

Textbooks are educational books specifically designed to provide detailed information on a particular subject or course. They are often used in schools, colleges, and universities as primary learning materials and are usually structured to follow a curriculum. Textbooks contain explanations, examples, exercises, and sometimes supplementary resources to help students understand and master the subject. They are authored by experts and updated regularly to reflect new knowledge and teaching methods.
