The book before printing : ancient, medieval, and oriental
David Diringer (Author), Dover Publications, Inc (Publisher)
"Dr. Diringer, a leading scholar and lecturer at Cambridge University, has here written a massive, authoritative history of early books--one that will fascinate anyone interested in the origins, history, tools and techniques of early book production--surely one of the greatest civilizing and humanizing influences in the long and turbulent history of humanity."--Page [4] of cover
