This research defends the thesis that digital books reduce the characteristics of the communication medium “book” and are transforming into “non-books”. Two aspects are traced: the foredoom to failure of the commercial (paid) digital book and the end of the digital book in the “book” category. Symptoms for the failure of the commercial digital book are the drop of growth in the market of e-books, the transformation of the book from goods into service, being free of charge, parental and teacher’s resistance. Key factors in this resistance are compromising knowledge and teaching and violating readers’ rights. The reason for the failure of the digital book in the “book”category is determined – the factor of manipulating the content as well as the formats. The conclusion is that investment policies should be directed at publishing of printed books, the designed innovations should be orientated towards the physical issue and to be introduces in the paper and the printing.
Исследование защищает тезис, что дигитальные книги производят редукцию характеристик коммуникационного средства „книги“ и превращают себя в „не-книги“. Здесь прослежены два аспекта: первый, это обреченность провала коммерческой (платной) дигитальной книги; второй относится к концу дигитальной книги как категории „книги“. Симптомы неуспеха коммерческой дигитальной книги проявляют себя в снижении рыночного прироста е-книги, в изменении определения книги от товара в услугу, в ее бесплатности, в родительском и читательском отпоре. Ключевые факторы этого отпора мы видим в компрометировании познания и учебы и в нарушении читательского права. Можно указать и на причину провала дигитальной книги как категории „книги“ – фактор манипулируемости и содержанием, и форматами. Вывод таков: инвестиционние политики нужно направлять к изданию печатных книг, а дизайнерские инновации нужно ориентировать на физические издания и выложить их на бумагу и в печать.
