Como podemos ler um manuscrito com 2 000 anos que foi apagado, cortado, escrito e pintado por cima? Com um poderoso acelerador de partículas, claro! O curador de livros antigos, William Noel, conta-nos a história fascinante do palimpsesto de Arquimedes, um livro de orações bizantino que contém escritos originais, anteriormente desconhecidos, do antigo matemático grego Arquimedes e de outros.
