Bøker av Andrew Piper

An essay that focuses on reading in an e-reader world. Contending that our experience of reading belies naive generalizations about the future of books, it offers an elegantly argued and up-to-date tribute to the endurance of books in our ever-evolving digital world.

Examining novels, critical editions, gift books, translations, and illustrated books, as well as the communities who made them, this book tells a wide-ranging story of the book's identity at the turn of the nineteenth century. It shows how many pressing modern communicative concerns are not unique to the digital age.
