Inspirational Objects in Ucl s Historic Collections

This book, beautifully illustrated with specially commissioned photography, is a celebration of UCL »s unique collections, with leading academics from the university invited to select and write about an object each found inspiring. From a jar of moles to an Egyptian unguent spoon, a finger X-ray to some prehistoric cereal grains, their choices were often surprising, their responses always fascinating.
