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 significant, though not so extensive,
investment time to browse. In the limited sense, a book is a self-sufficient section or portion of a
longer composition, a use that reflects the fact that, in antiquity, long works needed to be written on
several scrolls, and every scroll needed to be identified by the publication it contained. So, for
example, each part of Aristotles Physics is referred to as a book. From the unrestricted sense, a
publication is your compositional whole of which such segments, whether known as chapters or
books or parts, are parts.
The academic material in a physical book need not be a composition, nor even be called a book.
Novels can consist only of drawings, engravings, or photos, or such matters as crossword puzzles
or cut-out dolls. In a physical book, the pages may be left blank or can contain an abstract set of
outlines as service for continuing entrances, e.g., an account book, an appointment book, an
autograph book, a notebook, a journal, or a sketchbook. Some bodily books are made with pages
thick and sturdy enough to support other physical items, like a record or picture album. Books may
be distributed in electronic form as e-books along with other formats.
Although in ordinary academic parlance a monograph is known to be a professional academic
work, instead of a reference work on a single scholarly topic, in library and information science
monograph describes more broadly any non-serial publication complete in one 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 store where books are
bought and sold is a bookshop or bookstore. Books are also sold elsewhere. Books may also be
borrowed from libraries. Google has estimated that as of 2010, roughly 130,000,000 different titles
were published. In some wealthier countries, the selling of printed books has decreased due to the
increased use of e-books.
In the 2000s, as a result of rise in availability of affordable handheld computing devices, the
opportunity to share texts via digital means became an appealing alternative for media publishers.
The expression e-book is a contraction of"digital book"; it pertains to a book-length book in digital
form. An e-book is usually made available through the world wide web, but also on CD-ROM and
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 pc; or by means 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 attempt to mimic the experience of reading a print book by
using this technology, since the screens on e-book readers are not as reflective.
