The first and one of the most important parameters is author popularity and expertise in the Civil Engineering field, be it as a university professor or a well-established engineering professional, followed by the reputation of the publisher and peer review.

You should also check for the citations and references given in the book and have a glance at the content relevancy as per your area of interest. Plus, have a look at the ratings and reviews of the book online, take help from your college professors in finding the best resources, and search the university libraries, which are generally a repertoire of good scholarly books.&nbs

The toppers give importance to both.

Both have their own benefits; while textbooks provide you with the foundational knowledge of the concepts of Civil Engineering, handwritten notes have a personalized touch and make it easy to understand and learn concepts.
