Books are extremely important sources of information for almost any topic. Short books that focus on a specific topic and are written by a specialist on that topic are called monographs. Books and monographs take a lot of time to research, write, and publish. They also go through strict editorial processes. As a result, they offer good quality content, thorough coverage of a topic, and they refer to a wide range of preexisting scholarship. This makes them excellent resources if you wish to explore a topic in depth.
