On textbooks not counting:
Yes, hmmm. And then there's the little problem of The Inquiry into the
Nature and Causes of the Wealth of Nations. If it was used as a textbook
entire--or just the Public Finance book within it--must it be disqualified?
Or, does an original source become a textbook when it is used that way?
Perhaps we should form a committee to develop the criteria for classifying
an original work as a textbook. Of course, there might be a minority
report.
