On page 82, Holl-Jensen explains the idea of an open book that doesn’t allow access to all of the pages. If the reader decides not to cut into the book, they are getting a very different story than if they had decided to. How does this relate to technology and how we view eBooks, online articles, etc.? Should authors think about this while writing?
On page 84 Holl-Jensen claims some books are looked at as artifacts while other books with the same content are looked at as mere objects that contain text? How does form contribute to the way a book is viewed?
On page 90, Alyson Fielding states that “a digital book shouldn’t mean we need to let go of the emotional connection to a physical object, and combining books with technology doesn’t have to mean a device with a screen”. Why does the form of a book relate to how we feel about the book? If a paper book and a digital book share the same content, why do they affect us in different ways?
