[QUOTE="usernametaken, post: 460554, member: 6820"] :?: The basic, classic information on cattle or any subject really - information for general health and well-being should not change. A book is handy to have around to reference. Admittedly, books are only as good as the research and experience behind them, as are internet sources. However, many books carry reputation tested by time of their usefulness. Internet sources may or may not be sourced at all so you need to read and sort even more critically. It might be an article with sound reasoning and could just as likely be the latest fly by night. Even if it the internet information comes from a University, it may be just theory, conjecture, etc. without the experience behind it. Most books aren't a large investment. I would think Ohio River and anyone else would benefit from having one around, even if it is just Storey's Guide. I think I would rather read genetic marking from the internet and get the basics from a reputable book. [/QUOTE]
