A scholarly monpgraph is conventionally defined as a book that is self-contained (hence monograph, and not a serial or part of a series) and that offers an original thesis or set of arguments and attempts to expand the frontiers of knowledge in a particular field. It is always based on thorough research, often of original documents, and is usually aimed not at a general audience but at other scholars and students active in the field. Libraries are typically the major customers of monographs, although some publishers - facing budgetary problems - have tried to encourage authors to aim their books at a wider audience. A scholarly monograph can be contrasted with a textbook, which usually does not offer original research or new theses and theories, but is designed to help students study a particular topic.
