Internet can never be compared to books
(Hasan daim Abbasi, Karachi)
Studing books is a habit that
makes an individual more knowledgeable and informative whether he is a
student,adoctor,an engineer, a lawyer a journalist or someone other else. As a
professional he must need to make sure of acquiring a proper and comprehensive
knowledge about every topic relevant to his profession. In the same way a
student if get the awareness of the importance of reading books in the student
life his chances of failures reduces to zero extent. Today The books might not
get the special importance as compared to the older times particularly in
Pakistan.
Internet is no doubt a blessing that has made the life of reader much easier,one
click can access you to any information regarding to any subject. This
technology has saved the time of the reader but it also has made the reader more
lethargic andlazy.The students of secondary level as well as graduation or
masters level set the tradition of copy paste the assignments given by their
teachers.The major loss of this so called tradition eliminates the researching
skills. Also sometimes the material published on certain websites is biased or
factually incorrect due to improper research done by the page administrator.
Also there are very few libraries
in Pakistan due to low annual educational budget. In these libraries the books
written by some professional foreign philosphers and authors are also not
available due to heavy prices.
The books are
The companions in a way that the internet can never be.The author speaks us
directly through the Pages.We hear his or her voice if the story is
compelling. It will become part of our own mentalities And provide us with an
experience which we will had through the author.That is why the power of
Books can never be replaced by internet.
Another reason why the internet will never replace books is because those who
wish to become writers want to see their works permanently published as books.
Something you can hold ,see,feel,skim through and read as one’s leisure without
the need for Electric current.The writer may use a word processor instead
of typewriter or a pen and pad,put the Finished product much eventually and even
as a book if it to have value to the reading public.The writer May use the
internet in course of researching a subject but the end product will still be a
book. Conclusion There is no doubt that internet is a blessing and grace
of modern technology that provide articles related to almost every topic.The
books written by the professional foreign philosphers are the expensive ones and
may be out of the reach of the middle class or poor families.It is the websites
that allows them to access to the articles of these expensive books without any
cost.On the same hand there are always some serious issues of authenticity
regarding the material published on these internet websites so books are the
assets that enables the nation to progress well in all the sectors of
development.
