We write manuscripts which may or may not be incorporated in to a book (which immediately becomes obsolete) or into a literature review.

There seem to be some psychology books written by researchers. They usually more more studies and statistics. It was the therapist who drew my attention to the distinction and pointed out I had a much less hostile response to the group she labelled researchers. I was using her terms. I do not know a more accurate term. Authors who do not have clients and therefore who do not write about their clients or describe their interactions with clients? Theorists perhaps?
