Books were, traditionally, made of paper bound together, with information printed on the pages within. Captain Kirk provided a book with data on astronomical objects, including Comet Icarus IV, to Commander Spock, but Spock already had the information.[1] Samuel Cogley preferred printed books to his computer, which he almost completely eschewed, as he believed that reading a work as originally produced could bring the reader closer to the intent of the writer.[2]
