EARTH DEFENSE FORCE 5-CODEX
The preeminent literary genre of the book may well be the novel, but the preeminent genre of the book is the utilitarian reference tool -- the accountant's ledger, the maintenance manual, and, above all, the bulging filing cabinet (itself nothing less than a mass of fluid codices). To sacralize the book as an object in the defense of a literary or cultural ideal is thus a losing cause for two reasons. First, the book itself is part of the problem, for if we accept the book in place of the scroll, then we have reinforced that utilitarian logic that leads to the electronic hypertext is an entirely logical and defensible continuation. 2ff7e9595c
