Textbooks now just equate to software for homework that happens to include a basically worthless 'ebook'.

When I was getting my bachelors I had a history professor REQUIRE 6 textbooks 5 of which he was author or co-author. I read a lot as it is but reading 5/6 books for 1 class in 1 semester is crazy.
