So true. Personally, I can't read on my phone or tablet - no 'soul' Cheesy
Yeah! Really I don't believe in PDFs that's why I said books cost money.I must say I would never read a PDF in my life if REAL BOOK is available.Paper has its own effect.

All the Harry Potter books. Smiley
Still not read/watched them. Is it better to read or watch?
They make more sense if you read them, however, I think that the movies are very good as well!
Ok I'm up for movies then.Books cost money and time no doubt.


Books cost money - true...
Well for standard people watching movies cost too.. I know that we are in the world of p2p torrents etc.
So maybe you heard about e-books? Or pdfs ? Cheesy
You can download a book for free too. Smiley

Just maybe it is quite harder to find a book than a movie Tongue but! Smiley Still - you can make it no cost.

But I must say I love to keep a book in my hands. Paper pages have something more inside than just "a book".

You could download the PDF and print it out yourself! Smiley
What about binding, cover etc.Also it doesn't look decent.
No, but the book would be on paper haha! Grin
Also forgot to mention it would be difficult to hold them. Another thing we can't put the printed version of ours in a book shelf etc.For those who like to collect books.

i just red einstein's biography.. he's one of the few heroes in history that have done questionable things, but man.. in reading his book, i felt like this man was not only a genius, but an awesome person. i kind of find inspiration from his personality.

Мy sister gave me this book 5 years ago, and it literally changed my life.


His books are entertaining in a sense but can't understand how it changed your life?

Maybe the book got him into cryptography and hence into bitcoin.

I read that, it was good.

I have read other Titles by Dan Brown but missed this one , how does it compare to Angels & Demons , Da Vinci code , No spoiler please Smiley

They're all good, but I think Da Vinci Code and Angels & Demons are his best. I haven't read the latest one.
Don't be in a rush to do so. Well, actually, just skip it. It's not worth your time. It's absolutely the worst of Dan Browns books (Inferno).

It's not terrible but it is my least favourite of his. It'll make a good film.

After reading this book, I've started to program my first encryption software based on hybrid cryptography,
and after I finished that, I decided that I want to study computer science.
Before that book I was completely undecided what should i study after high school.
After that a lot of interesting things happend, and I really enjoy programming,
and of course anything that is somehow connected to cryptography.

Maybe the book got him into cryptography and hence into bitcoin.

Yeah, that's true.
