Well, you said, "Scientists are thinking about not writing anymore books."

Now, you made this up. This claim is NOT based on an experiment or observation. This claim is definitely NOT a fact. This claim of yours is just a theory...

Now, action speaks louder than words..

one can easily see this to be...fact.

All one has to do is
goto Amazon.con
do a seach for Books
use the search term: physics
goto dropdown select menu
and select: Publication Date

and see for yourself

Look at 2019 and upcoming 2019


I see only a handful...


Do you really think that scientists write books that would be sold on Amazon? Some do, of course, but most publish in Journals and most publish strictly digital...

You just don't know what you don't know...

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Academic_publishing

"Academic publishing is the subfield of publishing which distributes academic research and scholarship. Most academic work is published in academic journal article, book or thesis form. The part of academic written output that is not formally published but merely printed up or posted on the Internet is often called "grey literature". Most scientific and scholarly journals, and many academic and scholarly books, though not all, are based on some form of peer review or editorial refereeing to qualify texts for publication.. Peer review quality and selectivity standards vary greatly from journal to journal, publisher to publisher, and field to field."

Also... "Scientific, technical, and medical (STM) literature is a large industry which generated $23.5 billion in revenue; $9.4 billion of that was specifically from the publication of English-language scholarly journals."

And then we have this, from 2017...

http://blog.cdnsciencepub.com/21st-c...ence-overload/

"... According to research from the University of Ottawa, in 2009 we passed the 50 million mark in terms of the total number of science papers published since 1665, and approximately 2.5 million new scientific papers are published each year."

Get it yet? 2.5 million new scientific papers are published each year!

Please remove your cranial calculator from its rectal storage facility and stop making **** up as you go along!
