Do you think books are being replaced by the electronic media? Can we do away with books altogether?

It is a fact that the books are being replaced by the electronic media. Gone are the days when people went to libraries to read books. All the information is now just a click away. Complete books are available online as e-books. The case of books is similar as that of desktop computers and landline telephones. The desktop computers have been swiftly replaced by laptops and palmtops while the landline telephones have been taken over by cell phones and tablets.


The time is not far when books will be counted as antiques and will be cherished by only a few. Yes, I believe that we can do away with the books completely. It is a good move for preventing the degradation of the environment.


I do believe that in coming times we will rely solely on the electronic media for information and access to books.
