1. A method for flipping pages of an electronic book hosted on a computer-readable medium for presentation on a display, comprising steps of:

  • creating at least one of a set of complex page flipping commands with an input device;

    transmitting the at least one of the set of complex page flipping commands from the input device to an electronic information processing device that is configured to read data from said computer-readable medium; and

    displaying a result from the at least one of a set of complex page flipping commands on the display, whereinthe set of complex page flipping commands comprises at least one ofa reverse-direction-of-a-single-last-trailing-page command,a reverse-direction-of-multiple-last-trailing-pages command,a reverse-direction-of-a-selected-group-of-flipping-pages command,an unfreeze-frozen-pages-and-let-pages-all-flip-in-a-same-direction command,an unfreeze-frozen-pages-and-let-subgroups-of-pages-flip-in-different-directions command,a launch-flipping-pages-while-a-thick-collection-of-pages-is-flipping command,a launch-at-least-one-other-thick-collections-of-pages-while-other-pages-are-flipping command,a move-at-least-one-of-a-held-pages-and-a-thick-collection-of-pages-in-a-selected-direction-and-at-a-selected-speed command,a-hold-a-sigle-page-in-mid-flip-and-collect-other-pages-that-flip-onto-the-sigle-page-in-mid-flip command,a hold-at-least-one-of-two-pages-and-two-thick-collections-of-pages-in-mid-flip-and -flip-onto-the-single-thick-collection-of-pages-in-mid-flip command,a hold-at-least-one-of-a-single-page-and-a-thick-collection-of-pages-in-mid-flip-and-execute -at-least-one-of-the-set-of-page-flipping-commands-between-the-at-least-one-of-a-single -page-and-a-thick-collection-of-pages-in-mid-flip-and-a-thickness-of-a-side-of-a-book-command,a hold-at-least-one-of-two-pages-and-two-thick-collections-of-pages-in-mid-flip-and-execute -at-least-one-of-the-set-of-page-flipping-commands-between-the-at-least-one-of-two-pages-and-two-thick-collections-of-pages-in-mid-flip command,a select-to-hold-at-least-one-of-at-least-two-pages-and-at-least-two-thick-collections-of-pages command,a hold-a-single-thick-collection-of-pages-in-mid-flip-while-releasing-one-or-more pages-from-the-collection-command, anda seleet-a-desired-split-point-on-a-held-single-thick-collection-of-pages-in-mid-flip and-split-the-eollection-of-pages-into-two-separate-colleetions-of-pages.
