>That looks like a very well made and expensive text book. Do people still use these?
That one is an AP calculus text book for High school students, so yes. I doubt many high schools have changed to electronic textbooks. Specifically Calculus: Graphical, Numerical, Algebraic 4th Edition
That being said I used textbooks in college as well. But you could often find the pdfs online as well for most of them. I might still have some of mine actually....
