“There is little need for books today because one can learn just as much or more from television.”

“Key to open the treasure of knowledge is Books”. Books are the main source if some one want to learn new thing all the time. Reading with concentration on any topic helps person to learn knowledge and also helps to persist that knowledge lifetime. I thinks this is why all the honorable celebrities always preferred book reading.

Importance of the reading is under consideration for very long time when there was not TV at all. Before century there was not to much equipments like TV, Radio, computer where available, at that time getting knowledge from reading the books was the main option, because tutor can not be available all the time. While reading the book if person is able to concentrate on the topic then there’s very less chances of diverting from there.

Now this is the era of Technology and electronic equipments. Lots of tools are there from which person can do learning task. Television is one of them. Person can get every thing that he wants on the TV. Different TV channel vendors have launched channels on every field of human interest. Sports. Religion, science, astronomy, Discovery, medical, mathematics and every branch of science can be viewed on the TV. So if person wants to learn on his own seating at home then now a days it is possible.

But person of this era of Technology and science has failed in most of the cases while he has tried to compare new tradition with the Traditional way of processing. Acquiring knowledge through the books is being done from centuries. I think replacing this tradition by watching on the television can never be successful. On some extends this can be surely helpful but making the strong argument that getting knowledge from TV works best compare to books is not at all acceptable.

While watching the program on the television person may feel more comfortable and enjoyable, Specially in case of kids. And science also state that thing you learn by hearing or watching remains for long time on your memory database compare to things you have learned reading books on your own. The action and postures he has seen on the TV can helps him to remind the thing he has learned.

But while learning on the television one can get more diverting elements on the screen in addition to his learning. Most of the TV programs come in installment dividing it through the advertisements. It’s human tendency that he attracts towards his interest at the movement he find it. So lots of things are available on the Television in addition to his study he will try to attend it with the excuse of getting refreshment. And once he diverted then it’s too tough for one to get back.

And seating on the television for long time is also not advisable for one as it can effect on his eyes.

While in case of reading books no drawback is there. Person searches, understand on his own and try to learn by self help him to get more benefit from what ever time he has spent. There is not other issue on the book which can take reader from his main topic to any other direction. Books need self effort from the person and without self effort and practice nothing can be absorbed. So concluding fro this discussion we can’t say that there is less need of books and one can learn it from Television.
