Glue allows them to attach battery to the body. Macbook's battery is not single piece, rather is few batteries connected with each other shaped in a ways that allow them to fill all empty space within the body.

Some other current models achieve this in a different manner, with a molded cage that holds the individual batteries in place throughout the body but can be removed.
