E-Books

Though various sources have reported a decline in e-book sales for traditional publishers in 2015 compared to 2014, no one has come up with a clear reason for the drop. The primary source writings in this anthology have been selected to provide your readers with a broad spectrum of viewpoints on e-books. These essays offer expert opinions on the inherent value of e-books vs. print books. Students are encouraged to see the validity of divergent opinions, so that they may understand the debate inclusively. An important question about the topic is presented in each chapter, and viewpoints are organized based on their response. Fact boxes summarize important information for researchers, and an extensive bibliography is included.
