Are books more important than experience? Though certainly the books provide one a wide range of information even from the area the experience of his life would never reach, once he tries to manage something in practice depending on the information gained only from books, he will note that they are not a source of the perfect information For example, suppose that we had 20 books which teach us how to cook Japanese dishes and we decided to make a Sushi roll The books will be very useful because they indicate what we have to buy and what kind of procedures we should take Even in case we never had seen Sushi nor the process of cooking, some books would should them in their pictures We not have to memorize each information because with those books we would always be able to review it However, what will happen if we had never eaten Sushi? Some professional chef might be able to imagine how it could taste by the information of the books, but even in that case he would not know how delicious it would be nor how good Sushi should taste The majority of authors of those books write depending on their own experience and they definitively should have not imagined what kind of difficulties could occur if a Nigerian Chef try to make a Sushi roll with the African rice which is drier and smells stronger than Japanese rice Without an experience of making it with a teacher, one would never learn how strongly one should give the pressure as rolling it In conclusion, the information of books is not complete They are useful as reference because they provide the basic information that everybody look for and also details that other person investigated or experienced which you might not obtain only by your experience, whereas you cannot totally depend on their information when you intend to gain knowledge
