At the beginning, though, it was a spitting image of its manuscript predecessor. It did not have a title page, it did not mention its author and title. At the beginning, nobody probably gave much thought to the question of books' appearance. The driving force behind the invention was purely technical. Something very similar is happening now in our electronic world.
Technical aspects are what counts and the first electronic books are much alike their printed form.

And although we cannot unveil what will emerge in the years to come, there may be something we can do. Roldan Digitization Albertina icome Praha s.r.o. Displays C. H.
