It has been said, Not everything that is learned is contained in books.

Compare and contrast

knowledge gained from experience with knowledge gained from books. In your opinion, which
source is more important? Why?--------------------------------------------------------------------Books
are the precious source of information and knowledge. Nevertheless it is aproven fact that Not
everything that is learned is contained in books. For example a baby right from the birth starts
experiencing and learning things like uttering words mama papa initially and than start speaking
the language that is spoken in the house without reading any books on that Spoken Language.
Whereasthe subjects like Science, Mathematics, Drawing, Literature, History, Civics, Social
Studies, Computer Application, etc one needs to have school admission, andread books to
learn.No one reads any book on How to ride a bicycle yet every one learns. In the process one
may tumble down from bicycle get bruised, bleed a little and yet learnriding a bike and master it
for that purpose by experience only. In contrast none should take risk and start repairs of an
Electric line without acquiring knowledge of Electrical Engineering.Said knowledge can not
be acquired without help of books on that subject matter.For subjects like Engineering,
Medicine, Surgery, Aeronautics, Law, Finance, Audits, Management etc the basic and
fundamental knowledge can only be gained withthe help of books. Whereas in contrast the
individual professionals during thecourse of practicing the above, professionals gain immense
practical experienceof dealing with the most critical contingencies like saving human and animal
lives, saving men, material, money and property during fire-fighting operations and in many
more rescue operations like that. Needles to say all these may not necessarily be available in
books.In conclusion both are equally important i.e. learning from books as well as learning from
experience
