Description
If it comes to revolutions in public knowledge, Gutenberg's Bible is there with the internet. As the first major Western printed publication using movable metal type, this extraordinary technological and artistic achievement heralded the era of the printed book. This detailed reprint reproduces the edition of the Göttingen Library, one of the few complete Latin originals preserved worldwide, listed in the UNESCO Memory of the World program.
