Coffee with a Codex: Alchemy & Medicine

On October 3, Curator Dot Porter will bring out LJS 500, a 15th century alchemical and medical compendium containing recipes and texts from a variety of sources, many of which appear with traditional (now suspect) attributions in other manuscripts, with an alphabetical index to recipes at the beginning of the volume.
