“The e-book is currently experiencing impressive growth and development. Established and celebrated authors are publishing electronic editions of their bestselling books, while major electronics manufacturers are experimenting with new display technologies and bringing cool e-book readers to market. Traditional publishing houses are taking notice, as more and more readers are taking e-books with them, to read on breaks, on their commutes, and on vacations.
The e-book is already following the path that the paperback book blazed a century ago, from lowly and illegitimate roots, to a place of respect beside hardback books. And during Read an E-book Week, we?re going to help it along by encouraging e-book readers, authors and publishers to pitch in.
