Benefits of Reading
As an intellectual thing, 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 extensive,
investment of time to read. This sense of publication has a restricted and an unrestricted sense. In
the restricted sense, a publication is a self explanatory section or portion of a longer composition, a
use that reflects the fact that, in antiquity, long works needed to be written on several scrolls, and
each scroll had to be identified from the publication it included. So, for instance, each component
of Aristotles Physics is called a book. From the unrestricted sense, a publication is your
compositional whole of which these sections, whether called chapters or books or parts, are parts.
The intellectual content in a tangible book need not be a composition, nor be called a book. Novels
can consist just of drawings, engravings, or photographs, or such things as crossword puzzles or
cut-out dolls. At a physical book, the pages can be left blank or may contain an abstract set of
outlines as service for ongoing entrances, e.g., an account book, an appointment book, an
autograph book, a notebook, a diary, or a sketchbook. Some physical books are created out of
pages thick and sturdy enough to support other physical items, like a scrapbook or picture album.
Books could be distributed in electronic form as e-books along with other formats.
Although in normal academic parlance that a monograph is known to be a professional academic
work, rather than a reference work on a single scholarly subject, in library and information science
monograph denotes more broadly any non-serial publication complete in 1 volume (publication ) or
a finite number of volumes (a novel like Prousts seven-volume In Search of Lost Time), compared
to serial publications like a magazine, journal, or newspaper. A passionate reader or collector of
novels is a bibliophile or colloquially,"bookworm". Novels can also be sold everywhere. Google has
estimated that as of 2010, approximately 130,000,000 distinct titles had been published. In some
wealthier countries, the selling of published books has diminished because of the increased usage
of e-books.
In the 2000s, due to the growth in availability of cheap handheld computing devices, the
opportunity to share texts through digital means became an attractive option for media publishers.
The expression e-book is a contraction of"electronic book"; it pertains to some book-length
publication in electronic form. An e-book is generally made available through the internet, but also
on CD-ROM along with other forms. E-Books may be read either via a computing device with an
LED display such as a conventional computer, a smartphone or a tablet computer; or by means of
a mobile e-ink display device known as 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 publication by using this technology, because the displays on e-book readers are
much less reflective.
