On The Right Use Of Books: A Lecture is a book written by William Parsons Atkinson and first published in 1878. The book is a lecture that discusses the importance of reading and the proper way to use books. Atkinson argues that books are not just a source of entertainment, but also a means of acquiring knowledge and improving oneself. He emphasizes the need for individuals to carefully choose the books they read, and to read them with a critical and analytical mind. Atkinson also discusses the potential harm that can come from reading books that are inappropriate or of low quality. He encourages readers to use books as a tool for personal growth and development, rather than as a means of escape or distraction. Overall, On The Right Use Of Books: A Lecture is a thought-provoking and insightful work that provides valuable guidance on how to make the most of one's reading experience.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
