E-Books Vs Books
What are e-books?
E -books or electronic books are
publication in digital form published or presented on computers or
any other electronic devices.
The Oxford Dictionary of
English defines the e-book as “an electronic version of a printed
book.”
Pros and cons:
An e-book may be readable in low
light or even total darkness. Many newer readers have the ability to display
motion, enlarge or change fonts; can use certain software to read aloud text
for the visually impaired persons. It can e- purchased downloaded or used
immediately and for a printed book one has to go to a bookshop or a library. E
books uses less materials and printed books vice verse.
Paper books can be bought and wrapped
for a present and a library of books can provide visual appeal, while the
digital nature of e-books makes them non-visible and intangible. Printed books
can be used for a longer period and e -books has to be stored or copied if to
be used over time.
Of all e books can
not have the physical feel and smell of the real books which a reader
cherishes while reading. More over e books are stopped if the battery of the
machine fails or charges out.
