Advantages of Reading

As an intellectual object, a publication is prototypically a composition of these great length that it
takes a considerable investment of time to write and a still significant, though not so extensive,
investment time to read. This sense of book has a restricted and an unrestricted sense. In the
limited sense, a publication is a self explanatory section or part of a longer article, a usage that
reflects the simple fact that, in antiquity, long works needed to be written on many scrolls, and
every scroll had to be identified by the publication it contained. Therefore, for example, each
component of Aristotles Physics is called a book. From the unrestricted sense, a publication is the
compositional whole of that these sections, whether known as chapters or books or components,
are components.

The intellectual content in a physical publication does not need to be a composition, nor be called a
novel. Novels can consist only of drawings, engravings, or photos, or such matters as crossword
puzzles or cut-out dolls. At a physical book, the pages may be left blank or can feature an abstract
set of lines as support for continuing entries, e.g., an account book, an appointment book, an
autograph book, a notebook, a journal, or a sketchbook. Some physical books are made with
pages thick and sturdy enough to encourage other physical items, like a scrapbook or picture
album. Books could be distributed in electronic form as e-books and other formats.

Although in normal academic parlance a monograph is understood to be a specialist academic
work, rather than a reference work on a single scholarly subject, in library and information science
monograph describes more broadly every non-serial publication complete in one volume
(publication ) or a finite number of volumes (even a novel like Prousts seven-volume In Search of
Lost Time), in contrast to serial publications like a magazine, journal, or newspaper. An avid reader
or collector of books is a bibliophile or colloquially,"bookworm". A shop where books are purchased
and sold is a bookshop or bookstore. Novels are also sold elsewhere. Google has estimated that
as of 2010, approximately 130,000,000 distinct titles had been published. In some wealthier
nations, the sale of printed books has diminished due to the increased usage of e-books.

In the 2000s, as a result of growth in availability of cheap handheld computing devices, the
opportunity to share texts through digital means became an attractive alternative for media
publishers. Thus, 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 usually made available
through the world wide web, but also on CD-ROM and other forms. E-Books may be read either
using a computing device with an LED screen such as a conventional computer, a smartphone or a
tablet computer; or by means of a portable e-ink display device called an e-book reader, such as
the Sony Reader, Barnes & Noble Nook, Kobo eReader, or even the Amazon Kindle. E-book
readers attempt to mimic the experience of reading a print book by employing this technology,
since the displays onto e-book readers are much less reflective.
