First Claim
1. An electronic book comprising:
- a multiple piece body including a first hollow body having a surface and an edge surface, a second hollow body having a first edge surface and a second edge surface, and a third hollow body having a surface and an edge surface, the edge surface of the first hollow body being hingeably attached to the first edge surface of the second hollow body and the edge surface of the third hollow body being hingeably attached to the second edge surface of the second hollow body;
a computer located in the multiple piece body including a processor for manipulating data, memory for data storage, an input for entering data, and an output for removing data;
a plurality of page displays operably coupled to the output of the computer for displaying data from the computer and attached to the multiple piece body such that closing the surface of the first hollow body onto the surface of the third hollow body protects the plurality of page displays; and
a switch mounted to the second hollow body between the first edge surface and the second edge surface, as well as coupled to at least one of the plurality of page displays and to the computer so that turning the at least one of the plurality of page displays advances the data through the plurality of page displays.

Abstract
A multi-piece body (102) having a first hollow body (103) with a surface (105) and a second hollow body (108) with a surface (110) is provided. The first hollow body (103) and the second hollow body (108) is hingeably affixed such that the surface (105) of the first hollow body (103) and the surface (110) of the second hollow body (108) are capable of being closed on each other. A computer including a processor (560) for manipulating data, memory for data storage, an input for entering data, and an output for removing data is located in the multi-piece body (102). A plurality of optical displays (116) are operably coupled to the electronics 130, thereby enabling data to be optically displayed with the plurality of page displays (116).
