It does depend on the field, in mine (psychology) the textbooks can be very, very different due to the size and bifurcation of the field.

But yeah, you won't get rich, but you will get a full bookshelf, so you'll be rich in knowledge ;)

Haha, I wish! Most of the books for the intro classes I teach are essentially redundant. It's a lucky occasion when you teach something where you learn something completely new that you find interesting, and these classes are typically small, so there's even less incentive for a publisher.
