Do you really think the 40K most important Wikipedia articles are more
useful than a set of high school textbooks?

Wikipedia is sometimes good for getting answers to specific questions, or as
a place to find out what you don't know so you can then check other
resources to learn it.  But it can't replace a good textbook for learning
something from scratch.  Really, no encyclopedia can.
