When I finally bought an iPad, I was looking forward to reading a lot of books that were no longer in print. I warmed at the idea that one day I could take with me all the books I had ever read. One of my favourite), Not good enough, dammit, not good enough! And yet, as Sherman Young convincingly affirms in his book The book is dead.
