TED - William Noel: Revealing the lost codex of Archimedes

NUUG

Ancient books curator William Noel tells the fascinating story behind the Archimedes palimpsest, a Byzantine prayer book containing previously-unknown original writings from ancient Greek mathematician Archimedes and others. TED talk downloaded from The Internet Archive.
