Surely, though, there are very few subjects in which the political inclination of the authors matters? If I were to buy a maths textbook, it would not cross my mind for a moment to consider whether its author was left or right wing. It's only really a very few subject - history and economics spring to mind - where it could be a factor in introducing bias into the material taught.
