A book is a set or collection of written, printed, illustrated, or blank sheets, made of paper, parchment, or other material, usually fastened together to hinge at one side. A single sheet within a book is called a leaf, and each side of a leaf is called a page. A book produced in electronic format is known as an electronic book (e-book). Books may also refer to a literature work, or a main division of such a work. In library and information science, a book is called a monograph, to distinguish it from serial periodicals such as magazines, journals or newspapers. The body of all written works including books is literature. In novels, a book may be divided into several large sections, also called books (Book 1, Book 2, Book 3, etc). A lover of books is usually referred to as a bibliophile, a bibliophilist, or a philobiblist, or, more informally, a bookworm. A store where books are bought and sold is a bookstore or bookshop. Books can also be borrowed from libraries. History of booksMain article: History of the bookFrom Wikipedia under the

Q. I'm particularly interested in how the growth of air travel has changed American culture. My favorite book on the subject was Joe Sutter's book on the development of the 747. So, if anyone knows of similar books, I'd love to hear about them. Thanks Asked by rumcoke_77 - Mon Apr 14 23:30:06 2008 - - 4 Answers - 0 Comments A.
