4. They have an almost infinite catalogue of subjects they research and publish on.
5. They’re trying more to write for a wider audience so the language is more accessible & appealing to the general population.
6. Reading a few solid uni press books on timely, relevant social issues can give you a firm understanding of the problem, it’s historical context, directions that solution can be found in and more recommendations for what to read next.
7. Getting solid information that’s trustworthy, logical and well thought out by a genuine expert can really help with the stresses that our planet’s falling apart.
8. They’re not convenient.
9. After a few solid documentaries on a beloved subject, popular fiction doesn’t have enough new to you information.
10. The Uni Libraries!! Once you can increase your reading comprehension to read introductory academic writing, there’s seriously a whole world of information out there.
