What is a "Virtual" Book

Using the computer jargon in current use, something that is "virtual" is something that exists only on computers, not necessarily in real life.

I purposely created the book cover and flaps to create the illusion of a real book to strengthen the book "metaphor" that I used to give my site substance and cohesion. It was not an attempt to decieve the viewers into thinking I had simply put a book that was in print online. If there was confusion in this regard, I am sorry.

I fully intend to follow this "virtual" book with a more traditional print version. It will be a greatly expanded version for the print media once the virtual version is completed.
