Books are the source of knowledge. What the scientists, philosophers and men of letters thought about and achieved in the field of human knowledge ' has been preserved in black letters in the pages of books. Books are not absolutely dead things but do contain a potency of life in them to be as active as the soul whose progeny they are. They influence ones sentiments and one's attitude to life. They have a refining influence over the former and a liberalizing influence over the latter. They also influence human character and thought. A man is pleased when he can go beyond the worries and anxieties and daily drudgeries. The pleasure of reading in this sense is quite attractive. It takes the reader much beyond the ordinary business of life and makes him acquainted with the great achievements of the master minds of different ages.
