There was a time some five centuries back when books, as we know them today, did
not exist, and when there were few people who could read things written on stuff
that certainly was not paper. At that time our ancestors used rocks, pillars and
parchment with a view to recording and perpetuating their most important thoughts
and achievements in the language they then understood.
Now-a days, the book producing machinery gives to the work of every great scientific
thinker, poet or philosopher the character of permanence, reproduces in attractive
forms old and rare manuscripts and caters to the differing tastes of millions of people
for whom book-reading is an extremely pleasant, intellectual exercise.
Moreover, the high percentage of literacy, the growth of libraries in towns and
villages and the tendency of intellectuals to have their own private collection of
useful books, have given birth to a number of big publishing houses with branches
in many parts of the world and publications numbering in thousands.
