A display device has a function for improving image degradation caused by residual images generated when a plurality of images (for example, a plurality of pages of book data) is continuously displayed on a screen. This display device is provided with a continuity determination unit that determines the presence or absence of continuity among the plurality of images displayed continuously and a display control unit for carrying out operations (for example, a refresh operation) for improving image degradation on the basis of the results of the determination of the presence or absence of continuity among the plurality of images. Thus, screen flicker generated when switching from the current image to the image displayed next on the screen of the display device can be reduced. Specifically, in electrophoresis display devices such as electronic paper, refresh operations can be carried out with appropriate timing without making the user feel uncomfortable. |
