Benefits of Reading

As an intellectual object, a publication is prototypically a composition of such great length that it
takes a substantial investment of time to write and a still considerable, though not so
comprehensive, investment of time to browse. This feeling of book has a restricted and an
unrestricted sense. In the restricted sense, a book is a self-sufficient section or portion of a longer
composition, a usage that reflects the fact that, in antiquity, long works needed to be written on
many scrolls, and every scroll had to be identified by the book it contained. So, for instance, each
part of Aristotles Physics is called a book. In the unrestricted sense, a publication is the
compositional whole of that such sections, whether called books or chapters or parts, are parts.

The intellectual content in a physical book need not be a composition, nor be called a book. Novels
can consist only of drawings, engravings, or photos, or such things as crossword puzzles or cut-out
dolls. In a physical book, the pages can be left blank or can contain an abstract group of lines as
support for ongoing entries, e.g., an account book, an appointment book, an autograph book, a
notebook, a diary, or a sketchbook. Some physical books are created with pages thick and sturdy
enough to encourage other physical items, like a record or picture album. Books may be distributed
in electronic form as e-books and other formats.

Although in ordinary academic parlance that a monograph is understood to be a professional
academic work, instead of a reference work on a single scholarly topic, in library and information
science monograph describes more broadly every non-serial book complete in 1 volume
(publication ) or a finite number of volumes (even a publication like Prousts seven-volume In
Search of Lost Time), compared to serial publications like a magazine, journal, or newspaper. A
shop where books are purchased and sold is a bookshop or bookstore. Novels are also sold
everywhere. Google has estimated that as of 2010, roughly 130,000,000 distinct titles were
released. In some wealthier nations, the sale of printed books has decreased due to the increased
usage of e-books.

In the 2000s, due to the growth in availability of cheap handheld computing devices, the chance to
share texts via electronic means became an appealing alternative for media publishers. Hence,
the"e-book" was created. The expression e-book is a contraction of"digital book"; it refers to some
book-length publication in digital form. An e-book is generally made accessible through the
internet, but also on CD-ROM and other forms. E-Books may be read either via a computing
device with an LED screen such as a traditional computer, a smartphone or a tablet computer; or
by way of a mobile e-ink screen device called an e-book reader, like the Sony Reader, Barnes &
Noble Nook, Kobo eReader, or the Amazon Kindle. E-book readers attempt to mimic the
experience of reading a print book by using this technology, since the screens onto e-book readers
are much less reflective.
