Internet is a product of technology. It is a big contribution to our society. In the field of research, I think it has a huge library than ever. It is a great source of information. But sometimes, I prefer buying a book to look for some information and to educate myself. I know I can find the information I am looking for in the internet, but I just prefer to read it in the book. In your case, which do you prefer? A book or the internet?

It's hard to say which is more important, I think there can be no absolute equality sign between the two media. Each has its own specifics, charm, and can complement each other, using intelligent. However, I prefer "a solid copy"which flick it in silence, than to sit staring at the monitor, because of weak to me because of it. However, as a documentation tool quick reading "diagonal" Internet of course has its very important role. Information important in any research approach or not you will never find on the Internet for free. "Just as buying a book, so you have to open your bag for an article, a CD, etc.. A good book ...well,... it has its charm!

i prefer reading books. reading in the front of computer in a very long time might cause computer vision syndrome and it's really bad in our eyes. i likes books more because it's more convenient
