从书本中获得的知识要比通过直接经验获得的知识内容更加丰富，范围更加广阔。

Knowledge gained from books is broader but not necessarily richer than what can be learned from direct experience.

1. Systematically arranged, knowledge gained from books, the results of countless other people’s direct experiences, is broader than what one can learn from his or her direct experience.

2. However, direct experience, though limited by time and space, provides on with an opportunity to gain a more accurate and vivid understanding of a matter.

3. The best way to learn is to put what we gain from books into practice.
