This Collector's Edition of Marks of Genius designed in the
Bodleian Library is quarterbound in Nigerian goatskin with gold
tooling and blind blocking on the spine and front cover, and comes
with a matching blocked, lined slipcase. It is limited to 350
individually numbered copies. Every copy is signed by the author
and contains a hand-numbered limited declaration. Marks of Genius
pays tribute to some of the most remarkable testaments to genius
throughout human history, from ancient texts on papyrus and the
extraordinary medieval manuscript The Douce Apocalypse to the
renowned children's work The Wind in the Willows. Bringing together
some of the most impressive treasures from the collections of the
Bodleian Libraries, it tells the story of the creation of each work
and its afterlife, offering insight into the breadth and depth of
its influence as well as its power to fascinate. Illustrating works
from Euclid, Dante and Handel to Einstein, Austen and Gandhi, Marks
of Genius showcases over 100 books and manuscripts that constitute
the pinnacle of human creativity and which we continue to revere
and revisit. More information on the Collector's Edition: Limited
