In the traditional publishing world, aspiring authors faced a number of barriers to seeing their work published. Between submitting manuscripts to publishers, waiting for responses, and the possibility of rejection, the process was long, complicated, and often discouraging. With the advent of self-publishing , these barriers began to crumble, offering new possibilities for writers around the world. In this scenario, Kindle Direct Amazon 's KDP Publishing has emerged as one of the most influential platforms, democratizing access to publishing and allowing authors to self-publish their works. KDP is a platform that facilitates the publishing of books in digital and printed formats. Created by Amazon in 2007, it allows writers, regardless of their experience or notoriety, to launch their works directly to the global market, without having to go through the scrutiny of large publishers. Through KDP, authors can format, publish and distribute their books both in digital format, for Kindle readers, and in printed format, using Amazon 's print-on-demand service . One Platform, Two Realities KDP offers two main options for authors: digital publishing and print-on-demand. With digital publishing, books are converted into e-books, which can be purchased and read on Kindle devices or other devices through the Kindle app . Print-on-demand, on the other hand, allows books to be printed only when an order is placed, eliminating the need for initial print runs, storage costs, and inventory concerns. These two options create a new paradigm for authors. On the one hand, e-books offer a fast, affordable, and efficient way to get a book to market. The barrier to entry is low and the costs involved are minimal, allowing authors from anywhere in the world to publish their work. On the other hand, print-on-demand offers authors the possibility of seeing their words materialized on paper, a deep desire for many writers. In addition, printed books still hold significant symbolic value, being preferred by many readers who enjoy the feel, smell, and durability of a physical book. The Power of Autonomy...

In an era that witnessed the development of technology, and nothing remains the same, it is time to add a new approach and new methods to the teaching mechanism of university courses. Here you will find a project that is likely to be implemented with Google, which is concerned with delivering the paper book prescribed to each student in his course at every university, in the form of an electronic book and in an effective practical way, and this does not negate the presence of the student‘s paper book on the contrary. The electronic book is at the expense of the paper book. Most studies indicate that students prefer the electronic book over the paper book for several reasons, including cost, weight, and keeping pace with technological development. As for the rest of the groups, and to a greater extent, they prefer the paper book for psychological purposes first, and then because of their needs for tangible dealing with the book. Finally, we do not deny that both types are a source of knowledge and a summary of what scientists and thinkers came up with, and they are the main source for the progress of nations.
