The textbook industry is a racket. The angry science professor is being disingenuous. He is correct that science is progessing rapidly but new editions every few years doesn't correct the problem. Science is moving too fast. Electronic resources(e.g. the Internet) affords scientific information to be updated in near real time at a fraction of the cost of textbooks. The angry professor's cash cow is going digital at a fraction of the cost. No wonder he's angry.
