The documented dangers of pbooks go back at least as far as Pliny the Younger:

True, but paper book are still less likely to get you than an ebook in an electronic device whose battery can spontaneously catch fire and burn down your house at any moment. Pedestrians are also increasingly becoming casualties while walking by texting however it's possible a few were engrossed in an ebook before they met their fate.

In regard to the dangers of pbooks I did get a nasty paper cut a time or two while reading.
