Sommario/riassunto |

In this book, Readers will learn how the Bible that Johannes Gutenberg began work on in 1450 resulted in a transformation in the distribution of knowledge and sparked incredible growth in literacy. The Gutenberg Bibles layout and decoration are discussed, while images of the pages from the book itself impress upon readers the importance of consulting primary sources. |
