Benefits of Reading

As an intellectual thing, a book is prototypically a makeup of these great length that it takes a
substantial investment of time to write and a still significant, though not so comprehensive,
investment of time to browse. In the limited sense, a book is a self-sufficient section or part of a
longer composition, a usage that reflects the simple fact that, in antiquity, long functions had to be
written on many scrolls, and each scroll needed to be identified from the book it included.
Therefore, for example, each component of Aristotles Physics is called a book. From 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 book need not be a composition, nor be called a book. Novels
can consist only of drawings, engravings, or photographs, or such things as crossword puzzles or
cut-out dolls. In a physical book, the pages can be left blank or can 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 books are made out of pages thick and
sturdy enough to encourage other physical items, like a record or photograph album. Books could
be distributed in digital form as e-books along with other formats.

Although in normal academic parlance 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 describes more broadly every non-serial book complete in 1 volume (book) or a finite
number of volumes (even 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 reader of novels
is a bibliophile or colloquially,"bookworm". Novels are also sold elsewhere. Google has estimated
that as of 2010, approximately 130,000,000 different titles were published. In some wealthier
nations, the selling of published books has diminished due to the increased usage of e-books.

In the 2000s, as a result of growth in availability of affordable handheld computing devices, the
chance to share texts via digital means became an attractive alternative for media publishers. The
expression e-book is a contraction of"electronic book"; it refers to a book-length publication in
electronic form. An e-book is usually made accessible through the internet, but also on CD-ROM
and other forms. E-Books may be read either using a computing device with an LED display like a
conventional computer, a smartphone or a tablet pc; 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 try to mimic the experience of reading a print publication by
employing this technology, because the displays onto e-book readers are not as reflective.
