The invention of writing was one of the most important technological, cultural, and sociological breakthroughs in human history. With the printed book, information and ideas could disseminate more widely and effectively than ever before—and in some cases, affect and redirect the sway of history. Today, nearly one million books are published each year. But is the era of the book as we know it—a codex of bound pages—coming to an end? And if it is, should we celebrate its demise and the creation of a democratic digital future, or mourn an irreplaceable loss? The digital age is revolutionizing the information landscape. Already, more books have been scanned and digitized than were housed in the great library in Alexandria, making available millions of texts for a curious reader at the click of a button, and electronic book sales are growing exponentially. Will this revolution in the delivery of information and entertainment make for more transparent and far-reaching dissemination or create a monopolistic stranglehold?
In The Case for Books, Robert Darnton, an intellectual pioneer in the field of the history of the book and director of Harvard University's Library, offers an in-depth examination of the book from its earliest beginnings to its shifting role today in popular culture, commerce, and the academy. As an author, editorial advisor, and publishing entrepreneur, Darnton is a unique authority on the life and role of the book in society. This book is a wise work of scholarship—one that requires readers to carefully consider how the digital revolution will broadly affect the marketplace of ideas.

纸质书还有未来么？ 我们常听到这样一种说法：在数字时代，纸质书是多余的。不过，我们似乎还没有看到其式微的迹象——（英国）每年新出版的图书很快就会达到100万种。在这本关于图书的过去和未来的文集中，罗伯特•达恩顿（Robert Darnton）指出，纸质书有很多实际的优点：...
評分总有人担心纸质书在未来会被电子书取代，不光是出版业的人，还有所有热爱纸质书的人。只要这种担忧存在，纸质书就有继续生存的土壤。纸质书和电子书相比有很多优点，不光是不费电、稳定性好、对眼睛伤害更小之类，还包含了更多感性、人文的东西在里边。纸质书是一种文化的载体...
評分我知道这本书为什么排名这么低。 原因很多：首先，我是在王府井书店进门打听的畅销书展台上看到它的，当时它和《乔布斯传记》放在一起。第二，它是中信出版社翻译的。第三，它竟然是个精装本！ 对于达恩顿这么一个趣味优雅又勇于尝新、时髦而又正统的学者来说，这可真是巨大...
評分这里的我做的的所有读书笔记，比较杂，有8500多字，我会按照不同的主题慢慢整理成一篇成型的读书笔记。有兴趣的可以看分页的读书笔记。 本书的框架分为三部分，未来、现在和过去，其中未来是以图书电子化、谷歌图书搜索计划和网络为主题，阅读的现在是方兴未艾的学术期刊电子...
評分一种媒介不会取代另一种媒介，就像我在的博客hjbrave.blog.163.com发表的文章《信息竞争论》一样。信息在互相竞争，有很多传统的信息虽然没有被取代，但是人们已经不在上面花费时间，投入精力了。现在的信息就像古代皇帝的后宫，妃嫔无数各个等着被主人宠幸。没有竞争力的虽然...
