A basic law of physics is that an object in motion will stay in motion, and an object at rest will stay at rest. This is because the force of gravity is balanced out. Gravity pulls down on the book and the force of the table pushing up from the ground is equal to that force, so the book will not move because these two forces hold it in place.

Who does a book sitting on a table never accelerate spontaneously in response to the trillions of inter atomic acting with it?

There's nothing to say it wouldn't. Every atom would have to move in exactly the same direction, at exactly the same time, and overcome friction. Or. Depends on your frame of reference. The book, along with the table and the Earth, is spinning at thousands of miles an hour, orbiting the Sun at thousands of miles an hour.

Why is it that when you are trying to accelerate there is a delay in response in the speed and then when you slowly releasing the gas pedal that's the time you feel that the car is picking up power 1?

VW Service tells me delay in response is due to my heavy foot and unreasonable expectations of the 0-60 response.

How much do advertisers make?

It all depends on the media used, the creativity of the ad, and the response rate to those advertisements.
