ENCYCLOPEDIA BRITANNICA-FOURTH 4th EDITION 1810-ALL Volumes-Reference Book-DVD

You are about to purchase the Fourth Edition of The Encyclopedia Britannica on DVD disk. This PDF eBook version contains over 16,000 pages and is a great value! (This is NOT a video DVD) This scan is superior to others on eBay due to its clarity, and it is also searchable and copy/pastable for easy navigation. Shipping is FREE. Not sure what an “eBook” is? See a thorough description at the end of this page. The Encyclopedia Britannica fourth edition was begun in 1800 and completed in 1810, comprising 20 volumes with 16,033 pages and 581 plates engraved by Andrew Bell. As with the third edition, in which title pages were not printed until the set was complete, and all volumes were given title pages dated 1797, title pages for the fourth edition were sent to bookbinders in 1810, dated that year for all volumes. The editor was James Millar, a physician, who was good at scientific topics but criticized for being “slow & dilatory & not well qualified”. The mathematical articles of Prof. Wallace were widely praised in the fourth edition. Overall, the fourth edition was a mild expansion of the third, from 18 to 20 volumes, and was updated in its historical, scientific, and biographical articles. . Having this book on a DVD is a dream come true. A wonderful feature of this DVD is the ability to “copy and paste” any of the text from its pages into any other computer application/program. Try doing that with a printed book! Do you like audio books? Another time-saving feature not talked about very often is the “Read Aloud” function of Adobe Acrobat Reader. This feature will allow your computer to read the text of the book to you, whether it be one page or the entire book! (Don’t be fooled by others on eBay who try to pass off their eBooks as the only ones with this feature, as it will work with nearly any PDF in Adobe Acrobat) Don’t pass up this opportunity to obtain a copy of this awesome book on DVD! With this DVD you can read the pages on your computer, or print out any pages you like at your convenience. All files are in PDF format. Not sure what an “eBook” is? The term ‘eBook’ simply means “electronic book”, meant for viewing on your computer or other device. eBooks usually come in Adobe PDF format, as the one being offered in this auction. All that is required to read the eBook is a software program called Adobe Acrobat Reader, which will open PDF files. Most computers already have the Adobe Acrobat reader software already installed, but in the rare instance your computer may not have it, you can download the latest version for FREE at adobe dot com. For viewing on a mobile device such as Kindle, iPhone, Droid, etc. you must have an ‘app’ installed which allows reading of PDF files. With an eBook, you can read books on your computer screen and zoom in on the text to make the words as big as you would like them to be to read comfortably! You can also go to any page or chapter in the book with just a few mouse clicks, even if the book has thousands of pages! You can also print out any or all pages you like at your convenience. With some eBooks, you even have the capability to copy and paste the text of the book into another computer file, instead of retyping by hand. These are just a few of the features and conveniences of having a book in electronic format. I will send this item by postal mail.
