Benefits of Reading
As an intellectual object, a book 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
of time to read. This feeling of book has a restricted and an unrestricted sense. In the limited
sense, a book is a self-sufficient section or portion of a longer composition, a usage that reflects
the simple fact that, in antiquity, long works had to be written on many scrolls, and every scroll
needed to be identified by the book it contained. Therefore, for example, each component of
Aristotles Physics is referred to as a book. In the unrestricted sense, a publication is the
compositional whole of that such sections, whether called chapters or books or components, are
components.
The intellectual content in a tangible book does not need to be a makeup, nor even be called a
novel. Books can consist only of drawings, engravings, or photographs, or such matters as
crossword puzzles or cut-out dolls. At a physical book, the pages can be left blank or may contain
an abstract group of lines as support for continuing 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 objects, 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 professional academic
work, rather than 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 (a publication like Prousts seven-volume In Search of Lost Time),
compared to serial publications like a magazine, journal, or newspaper. An avid reader or collector
of novels is a bibliophile or colloquially,"bookworm". A shop where books are purchased and sold
is a bookshop or bookstore. Novels can also be sold elsewhere. Books can also be borrowed from
libraries. Google has estimated that as of 2010, roughly 130,000,000 distinct titles had been
published. In some wealthier countries, the selling of printed 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 chance to
share texts through electronic means became an appealing alternative for media publishers. The
term e-book is a contraction of"digital book"; it pertains to some book-length book in digital form.
An e-book is generally made accessible through the world wide web, but also on CD-ROM along
with other forms. E-Books may be read either using a computing device with an LED display like a
traditional 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
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.
