A book is now just a mouse-click away
By Roopinder Singh

WILL the familiar object with which we curl up in bed every other day — the one that makes us laugh and cry; the one we cherish and, at times, hate — be quite the same ever again? Good things, they say, do not remain the same. So why should we expect the one constant of this century to be an exception? Well, maybe, it is because we don’t quite know how to do without books.
