E-book

An e-book is a shorter term for a digital version of a book that lives inside your iPhone or any electronic device you want to read a book on. They are made instead of regular books with print on paper; e-books are made with glowing pixels on the screen that turn into text. Scholarly definitions describe it as and normal paper books equivalent to in a digital version. E-books can be made by re-using books that have already been created over hundreds of years and be translated ito the ebook version or be made primary on the ebook itself and vice versa. E-books replicate many features of a regular book like text, pages, and a table of contents they must be used on a digital form to be considered e-books.
