An eBook is simply an electronic edition of a book that is downloaded onto your computer. They require a reader program that is available in many FREE downloadable formats such as
PDF's (Portable Document Files).
eBooks are a wonderful addition to the literary world, offering us the newest venue in reading enjoyment. Computers are now as common as the television set in most people's homes
and the internet offers instant access to things they want. eBooks are used on your laptop, handheld, personal home computer, or portable eBook device. You can buy, download,
and start reading within minutes. They are easy to use and versatile; turn the page with the click of a mouse, change font sizes, search capabilites and even hyperlinks.
eBooks are wonderful when taking business trips or going on vacation; you don't have to worry about them taking up space. Save and store multiple titles and they are immediately
available when you're ready to settle in with a good book. Cross genre lines your thing but rarely find them on the paperback shelves? Many eBooks are cross genre, boldly stepping
outside the mold to bring their readers stories they've longed to read. How wonderful it is to have such a wide selection of books to buy and read right at the click of a mouse.
A word about eBooks from my publisher,
DLSIJ Press:
Our ebooks are much more than unadorned text files. They are painstakingly formatted and include a professionally designed bookcover. They are exactly
what is sent to a traditional book printer."
Below I've added some links for more information about ebooks
Along with Adobe, there are other formats to accommodate users of the Rocket/Gemstar eBook (.rb) and Palm Pilot PDAs (Palm Reader, freeware or pro, required).
Below are some links to these free programs.
"It is our imperative to uphold the mores of traditional publishing; therefore, our books are discriminately selected and professionally edited.
Our catalog may not be growing as fast as others, but that is because we are concerned with quality not quantity.Unlike some other electronic publishers,
we are not a repository of raw works, and we do not require any fees from our authors-they receive a royalty on each sale.
