            Benefits 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 compose and a still considerable, though not so
            extensive, investment time to browse. This feeling of book has a restricted and an unrestricted
            sense. In the restricted sense, a publication is a self-sufficient section or part of a longer article, 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. Therefore, for instance, each
            component of Aristotles Physics is referred to as a book. From the unrestricted sense, a
            publication is the compositional whole of that such sections, whether called chapters or books or
            parts, are parts.

            The intellectual content in a physical publication does not need to be a makeup, nor even be called
            a novel. Books can consist only of drawings, engravings, or photographs, 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 set of outlines as service for ongoing entries, e.g., an account book, an appointment
            book, an autograph book, a notebook, a diary, or a sketchbook. Some bodily books are made out
            of pages thick and sturdy enough to support other physical items, like a record or photograph
            album. Books may be distributed in digital form as e-books and other formats.


            Although in normal academic parlance that 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 denotes more broadly every non-serial book complete in one volume (book) or a finite
            number of volumes (even a publication like Prousts seven-volume In Search of Lost Time),
            compared to sequential books like a magazine, journal, or newspaper. An avid reader or reader of
            books is a bibliophile or colloquially,"bookworm". A shop where books are purchased and sold is a
            bookshop or bookstore. Novels are also sold everywhere. Google has estimated that as of 2010,
            roughly 130,000,000 different titles were released. In some wealthier nations, the sale of published
            books has diminished because of the increased use of e-books.

            In the 2000s, due to the growth in availability of affordable handheld computing devices, the
            opportunity to share texts through electronic means became an attractive alternative for media
            publishers. Thus, the"e-book" was created. The term e-book is a contraction of"digital book"; it
            refers to a book-length publication in electronic form. An e-book is usually 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 such as a traditional computer, a smartphone or a
            tablet pc; or by means of a mobile e-ink display device known as an e-book reader, like the Sony
            Reader, Barnes & Noble Nook, Kobo eReader, or the Amazon Kindle. E-book readers attempt to
            mimic the experience of reading a print book by employing this technology, because the displays
            on e-book readers are much less reflective.
