XXI Century. The age of space velocities and computer technology, an age in which the most saturated with all sorts of information, events and stresses. And where to find the person to a quiet retreat, to dream, poduma the good and eternal?Not so long ago, at the end of the last century, many scientists, blinded by the many possibilities of film, television and the computer, predicted the disappearance of the book culture in general. For what seems to be the book of paper, if you can just watch a movie or even the entire national library record n ​​single crystal. Yes, aozmozhnosti An information technology today reached such heights, which did not even looked science fiction. But I still believe that books will always remain a great heritage of human culture.How smells new edition. What kind of bright and beautiful illustrations in this book! I like a quiet whisper to turn the pages. I'm always happy when my hands gets new book, because I find it wise and good friend - no matter what age or standing outside the window.Start reading a new novel, I look forward to seeing a new man, a hero or a villain, prince or pauper, a skeptic, or romantic. I "try on" the one or the other image created by a master's hand, I imagine his clothes, movement, sights "of his" hero. And this is what, in my opinion, can not give the film, television and computer. After all, they offer a ready-made image, leaving no space for the imagination. But reading books just offers a thought and heart, not just consumption, "finished product". It is important in this case and that, what books we choose. It's no secret that right now in the sale of a large number of low-grade literature, so we need to be very choosy in selecting books. You can "swallow" all the detectives and romance novels, so anything and unscientific. But "book - a source of knowledge." Therefore it is impossible to treat the books as a means of recreation and entertainment. The book should contribute to the spiritual development of man, the formation of his as a person.Of course, in the search for specific information wiser to use a computer. He quickly find and provide the necessary information. There are also such branches of knowledge, where the visibility is more informative than the printed text. Is not it interesting to see the beauty of the flora and fauna or to observe changes in the molecule, than read about it in a textbook? Here, of course, the book gives film and television, to the JAC wonderful it may be illustrated. But when it comes to works of art, that never would I prefer filming.What is the result of thought? The book gives us the experience of past generations, their ideals, beliefs, find the path of truth. And in this age of the Internet and space travel book there is no substitute. I firmly believed in one. Whatever heights not reached mankind in its development, it will always cherish and appreciate the book.
