Abstract
When you just think about it! The digital world has changed our lives in every way. Education - the days when teachers used chalk, dusters and blackboards are almost at an end. Black has turned to white in the form of interactive whiteboards. The white chalk is now digital ink. Printed books - Over 92% of children in the United States carry backpacks that are typically loaded with heavy books that may set them up for spine strain rather than success. Now, those books are turning into e-books and audio books which thousands of them can be stored in a USB flash drive or cloud storage. They are adaptable, accessible, convenient and effective; also they are significantly less demanding on your back. Digital content has revolutionized the way people distribute and access information on virtually every platform. This current study focusses on the benefits which medical students can avail from learning with e-books. This study also deals with the future and market of paper books and e-books.
