Benefits of Reading
As an intellectual thing, a book is prototypically a composition of such great length that it requires a
considerable investment of time to compose and a still considerable, though not so
comprehensive, investment of time to browse. In the limited sense, a publication is a self
explanatory section or portion of a longer article, a usage that reflects the simple fact that, in
antiquity, long works needed to be written on several scrolls, and each scroll needed to be
identified by the publication it contained. Therefore, for instance, each part of Aristotles Physics is
referred to as a book. In the unrestricted sense, a publication is the compositional whole of which
such sections, whether called chapters or books or components, are parts.
The intellectual content in a tangible publication need not be a composition, nor even be called a
novel. 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 feature
an abstract group of lines as service for ongoing entries, e.g., an account book, an appointment
book, an autograph book, a laptop, a journal, or a sketchbook. Some physical publications are
made with pages thick and sturdy enough to support other physical items, like a scrapbook or
picture album. Books may be distributed in digital form as e-books and other formats.
Although in normal academic parlance that a monograph is known to be a professional academic
work, instead of a reference work on a single scholarly subject, in library and information science
monograph describes more broadly every non-serial book complete in one volume (book) 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 store where books are bought and
sold is a bookshop or bookstore. Novels are also sold everywhere. Google has estimated that as of
2010, approximately 130,000,000 distinct titles had been released. In some wealthier countries, the
selling of printed books has decreased because of the increased use of e-books.
In the 2000s, due to the growth in availability of affordable handheld computing devices, the
chance to share texts through digital means became an attractive option for media publishers.
Thus, the"e-book" was created. The term e-book is a contraction of"electronic book"; it pertains to
a book-length book in electronic form. An e-book is usually made accessible through the internet,
but also on CD-ROM along with other forms. E-Books might be read either via a computing device
with an LED screen such as a conventional computer, a smartphone or a tablet computer; or by
way of a portable e-ink display device called an e-book reader, such as 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, because the screens onto e-book
readers are much less reflective.
