Advantages of Reading

As an intellectual object, a publication is prototypically a composition of such great length that it
takes a substantial investment of time to write and a still considerable, though not so
comprehensive, investment time to read. In the restricted sense, a publication is a self explanatory
section or portion of a longer composition, a usage that reflects the simple fact that, in antiquity,
long works had to be written on several scrolls, and every scroll needed to be identified from the
book it contained. So, for instance, each component of Aristotles Physics is referred to as a book.
In the unrestricted sense, a publication is your compositional whole of which these sections,
whether called chapters or books or components, are components.

The intellectual content in a tangible publication need not be a makeup, nor be called a novel.
Novels can consist only of drawings, engravings, or photographs, or such matters as crossword
puzzles or cut-out dolls. In a physical book, the pages may be left blank or may feature an abstract
group of lines as support 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 created with
pages thick and sturdy enough to encourage other physical items, like a record or picture album.
Books could be distributed in digital form as e-books and other formats.

Although in normal academic parlance that 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 book complete in one volume (publication ) 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 books is a bibliophile or colloquially,"bookworm". Books are also sold everywhere.
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 because of the
increased use of e-books.

In the 2000s, due to the rise in availability of affordable handheld computing devices, the chance to
share texts via electronic means became an appealing alternative for media publishers. The term
e-book is a contraction of"electronic book"; it refers to a book-length book in electronic form. An e-
book is usually made available through the world wide web, but also on CD-ROM along with other
forms. E-Books may be read either via a computing device with an LED display like a traditional
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 book by using this
technology, since the displays on e-book readers are much less reflective.
