The future of the Book(2014,October 11).

From papyrus to pixels is a grand analysis of the
readers approach and attitudes towards print
media versus electronic media.The printed media
is not just the tree flakes,it has preserved and
formed ancient civilizations.Historically ,they
were considered to be a luxury,but with the
passage of time short stories novellas gained the
attention of the readers.With the advent of
electronic media,the reader found an easy access
to the material as well as a good chance of giving
feedback.Physical book shops were on decline,as
the publishers earn less and invest more,they
usually not effectively connect the writers work
to the readers and they must revisualize their
role,but it doesnot means print media is the story
of the past,in fact both finds a value in specific
instances.Rigid and old fashioned still prefer to
have book shelves along with the tablet devices
but in the later days,it will be preferred to make
the whole physical collection itself special on emedia.
