The age of learning and reason brought the advent of books which had many forms before actually they started coming out in their contemporary form where now a book is a compilation of the information or the content beautifully woven into the pages and given an eye-catching cover page which adds to the aesthetic face value of the book. But it was not like this always, before the invention of ink and paper by the Greeks, the teachers and the masters use to follow the oral tradition according to which the student had to memorize his lessons and apply them practically in his life. The lessons would be then passed on through generations and generations.

Soon the barks of the trees or the papyrus leaves in Egypt were used to write down the theories of the masters and great sages who believed in these theories and followed them word by word. As the times changed the early Greek civilization came up with the invention of pen and paper after which there was no uses of papyrus grass or the parchment paper.

These pages were complied together and replenished the world with those early books. Since their initial invention, these books have been completely updated in structure, appearance and the content too. Today the books have acquired a completely new shape due to commercialization of knowledge and commoditization of thoughts and feelings.

There was a time when the books were a reflection of the society and world we lived in and presented man as it, but today with the advent of technology and technique the books have also changed exceedingly and left behind their moral and ethical values with which they were associated. With the introduction of computer and internet, the world has moved forward in adopting advanced and fashionable, state-of the art means of gaining knowledge. The latest in the league is Virtual magazines and e-books.

Today there is no need to queue in front of book shops to get your copy of the latest publication. Now along with the traditional hardcopies, the new generation authors also believe in publishing their digital editions with the help of Page Turning Software which facilitates not only the reader to browse through the different pages of the book or the magazine but also helps the publisher to create an entire publication regardless of any size and also include various functions through which the publisher can allow the viewing of a certain section of the publication and restrict the others.
Thus these new age e-books are widely acceptable and cater to a large audience universally through internet and are slowly replacing the traditional hardcopies of the publications.
