Recenzje

'The exhibits provide much more accessible material for teaching … graduate students … will find plenty of inspiration and useful bibliographic materials, and scholars who teach in the area will want this collection on their bookshelves. The collection would be of particular use to modernists who want to beef up their knowledge of premodern 'generation' to enhance their research and supplement their teaching.' Lara Freidenfelds, History of Science, Technology, and Medicine
