This does not apply to math or physics, where you use textbooks up until you do independent research at the Masters or PhD level.
My interpretation of that sentence was that it was intended to apply only to humanities, social sciences, or biological sciences based on the context of the paragraph it resides in.
What 9eB1 said is how I intended it to be interpreted.
Also, that's a big part of the reason I like biological and social sciences better than chemistry/physics, despite being of a quantitative mindset. I'm impatient to get to the science part.
