I understand the romanticism with paper books. They are beautiful works of art that gain character over a period of time as different readers come into contact with their pages. Each book as a story of its own outside of the words on the page. But I, like many, grow tired rather quickly when I read. The small type and lack of interaction causes my to feel sleepy as I try to find out how Alice is going to get out of Wonderland. This issue is completely eliminated on the ereader, and I am surprised the customizable type features aren't mentioned in this article. Instead of having to find the formatted edition that suits my needs, I simple increase the font size to suit my needs. With ebooks, the limits are really non-existent with what can be done to story telling. When the printing press came around, the powers at be wanted to control it to only produce the bible. But eventually, people were printing powerful material such as "Common Sense" and "Mathematical Principles of Natural Philosophy" inspiring nations through the power of mass distributed information. eBooks (and obviously the Internet in general) is another step in our progress.
