Sobre este artículo
Book is like new. Archimedes was recognized as one of the greatest mathematicians, scientists, and inventors from Antiquity until today. The discovery of previously unknown works (and better copies of some known ones) hidden below the overwritten text of a prayer book. Modern technology has revealed the original text. This book tells the history of the manuscript and much more about the survival of Archimedes' works, when so many other works from Antiquity have been lost.
