Come si fa a leggere un manoscritto di 2000 anni fa che è stato cancellato, tagliato, e su cui hanno riscritto e ridipinto? Con un potente acceleratore di particelle, ovviamente! Il curatore di libri antichi William Noel ci racconta l'affascinante storia del manoscritto di Archimede, un libro bizantino di preghiere che contiene testi originali mai visti prima, scritti sia dall'antico matematico greco Archimede che da altri autori.

William Noel is a curator who believes museums should make their collections free and available on the Internet. Full bio »
