    【Question】
    How many books were published in 2017? published in 2017 refers to Substr(publication_date,1, 4) = '2017'

    【Evidence】
    published in 2017 refers to Substr(publication_date,1, 4) = '2017'

    Please read and understand the database schema carefully, and generate an executable SQL based on the user's question and evidence. 

SQL: SELECT COUNT(*) FROM book WHERE STRFTIME('%Y', publication_date) = '2017'
