本(ほん)は、書籍(しょせき)または書物(しょもつ)とも呼ばれ、紙・木・竹・絹布などの軟質な素材に、文字・記号・図画などを筆写、印刷し、糸・糊などで装丁・製本したもの。狭義では、複数枚の紙が一方の端を綴じられた状態になっているもの。このままの状態で紙の片面をページという。本を読む場合はページをめくる事によって次々と情報を得る事が出来る。つまり、狭義の本には巻物は含まれない。端から順を追ってしかみられない巻物を伸ばして蛇腹に折り、任意のページを開ける体裁としたものを折り本といい、折本の背面(文字の書かれていない側)で綴じたものが狭義の「本」といえる。本文が縦書きなら右綴じ、本文が横書きなら左綴じにする。また、1964年のユネスコ総会で採択された基準は、「本とは、表紙はページ数に入れず、本文が少なくとも49ページ以上から成る、印刷された非定期刊行物」と、定義している。5ページ以上49ページ未満は小冊子として分類している。 内容(コンテンツ)的にはほぼ従来の書籍のようなものでも、紙などに文字を書いたり印刷するのではなく、電磁的または光学的に記録・再生されるものやネットワークで流通させるものは、電子書籍という。
