Benefits of Reading

As an intellectual object, a publication is prototypically a makeup of these great length that it
requires a substantial investment of time to write and a still significant, though not so extensive,
investment time to read. This feeling of book has a restricted and an unrestricted sense. In the
restricted sense, a book is a self-sufficient section or portion of a longer composition, a usage that
reflects the simple fact that, in antiquity, long works needed to be written on many scrolls, and
every scroll needed to be identified from the book it contained. Therefore, for example, each
component of Aristotles Physics is referred to as a book. In the unrestricted sense, a publication is
the compositional whole of which these segments, whether known as chapters or books or
components, are components.

The academic material in a tangible publication need not be a composition, nor even be called a
book. Books can consist just 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 can feature
an abstract group of lines as support for continuing entries, e.g., an account book, an appointment
book, an autograph book, a laptop, a journal, or a sketchbook. Some physical publications are
made with pages thick and sturdy enough to support other physical items, like a record or
photograph album. Books may be distributed in electronic form as e-books along with other
formats.

Although in normal academic parlance that a monograph is understood to be a specialist academic
work, instead of a reference work on a single scholarly topic, in library and information science
monograph denotes more broadly any non-serial publication complete in 1 volume (book) or a
finite number of volumes (a publication like Prousts seven-volume In Search of Lost Time),
compared to sequential books like a magazine, journal, or newspaper. Books can also be sold
everywhere. Google has estimated that as of 2010, approximately 130,000,000 distinct titles were
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 cheap handheld computing devices, the chance to
share texts through 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 electronic
form. An e-book is generally made accessible through the internet, but also on CD-ROM along with
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 way of a portable e-ink screen device
called 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 employing
this technology, since the screens on e-book readers are much less reflective.
