Excerpt from Measuring Textbooks

The discriminating choice of a textbook, however, is a far more difficult matter than is the choice of a saw or a hammer. The characteristics demanded are numerous, interrelated, involved, and not alto gether obvious. Hence, the value of a clear-cut analysis of the chief characteristics which adapt a text to the four-fold requirements.

Of the considerations out of which arise the four types of demands that textbooks should meet, two are common to all types of books; these are the characteristics and needs of teachers and of pupils who are to use the books. The objectives that each type of book must serve are, of course, peculiar to each subject. The book itself, as a material thing, 18 determined in considerable measure, but not wholly, by the nature of its subject.
