Do you know how much money a doctor makes when he/she writes a text book? Are they trying to make a name for themselves besides make a ton of money or make a name for themselves in their workplace?
And textbooks are not without errors by any means. There was a time, not too long ago, when most doctors refused to believe that lost brain cells could be regenerated. So that's what was in the text books. Now we know that brain cells can be regenerated.
