Synopsis: A catalogue of manuscripts from an extraordinary collection. They date from the Middle Ages to the Renaissance and unusually for this period are almost entirely secular. All branches of human knowledge and endeavour are represented from philosophy to music, alchemy to medicine, and agriculture to technology. Islamic manuscripts are particularly numerous as well as some from as far away as Japan. The various sections of the book and the text are arranged to give a chronological sense of advances within the different branches of science and technology.
