Benefits of Reading
As an intellectual thing, a book is prototypically a composition of such 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. In the limited sense, a publication is a self-sufficient section or portion of a longer
composition, a usage that reflects the fact that, in antiquity, long functions had to be written on
several scrolls, and each scroll needed to be identified from the publication it contained. So, for
instance, each part of Aristotles Physics is referred to as 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 academic material in a physical book does not need to be a makeup, nor be called a book.
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 can be left blank or may contain an abstract group of
outlines as support for ongoing entries, e.g., an account book, an appointment book, an autograph
book, a notebook, a journal, or a sketchbook. Some physical publications are made out of pages
thick and sturdy enough to encourage other physical objects, like a record or picture album. Books
may be distributed in digital form as e-books and other formats.
Although in ordinary academic parlance a monograph is understood 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 every non-serial book complete in 1 volume (book) or a finite
number of volumes (a novel like Prousts seven-volume In Search of Lost Time), in contrast to
sequential books like a magazine, journal, or newspaper. Novels can also be sold everywhere.
Google has estimated that as of 2010, roughly 130,000,000 distinct titles had been released. 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 affordable handheld computing devices, the
chance to share texts via digital means became an appealing option for media publishers. The
expression e-book is a contraction of"electronic book"; it refers to some book-length publication in
electronic form. An e-book is usually made accessible through the world wide web, but also on CD-
ROM and other forms. E-Books might be read either using a computing device with an LED display
like a traditional computer, a smartphone or a tablet pc; or by way of a portable 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 try to mimic the experience of reading a print book by using
this technology, since the screens onto e-book readers are not as reflective.
