Advantages of Reading
As an intellectual thing, a book is prototypically a composition of these great length that it requires
a substantial investment of time to compose and a still considerable, though not so extensive,
investment of time to read. This feeling of publication has a restricted and an unrestricted sense. In
the limited sense, a book is a self explanatory section or part of a longer composition, a usage that
reflects the fact that, in antiquity, long functions needed to be written on several scrolls, and every
scroll needed to be identified from 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 that such sections, whether called books or chapters or components, are
parts.
The intellectual content in a physical book need not be a makeup, nor be called a book. 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 can be left blank or may contain an abstract group of
outlines as service for continuing entries, e.g., an account book, an appointment book, an
autograph book, a notebook, a diary, or a sketchbook. Some bodily publications are made with
pages thick and sturdy enough to support other physical objects, like a scrapbook or photograph
album. Books could be distributed in electronic form as e-books and other formats.
Although in ordinary academic parlance a monograph is known to be a professional academic
work, rather than 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 (publication
) or a finite number of volumes (even a novel like Prousts seven-volume In Search of Lost Time), in
contrast to serial publications like a magazine, journal, or newspaper. Books are also sold
elsewhere. Google has estimated that as of 2010, roughly 130,000,000 different titles were
published. In some wealthier countries, the selling of published books has decreased because of
the increased use of e-books.
In the 2000s, due to the rise in availability of cheap handheld computing devices, the chance to
share texts via digital means became an attractive alternative for media publishers. The term e-
book is a contraction of"digital book"; it refers to a book-length publication in electronic form. An e-
book is generally made accessible through the internet, but also on CD-ROM and other forms. E-
Books might be read either via a computing device with an LED display such as a traditional
computer, a smartphone or a tablet computer; or by way of a mobile e-ink screen device known as
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, because the screens onto e-book readers are not as reflective.
