About 40 years ago the publisher Charles Scribner remarked that if books became obsolete he would manufacture candles. Curiously, the production of candles in the USA today is greater, per person, than it was in colonial times and they are persisting in an increasing range of uses all in a context of electrical illumination. Was Charles actually anticipating the future of books in a digital context?
