Dr Blair reconstructs the often complex history of its ownership, explains its seminal role in the evolution of the illustrated Persian book, and challenges the belief of previous scholars that the Nour fragment and that in the Library of the University of Edinburgh are parts of different manuscripts. Among its holdings of outstanding manuscripts is a fragmentary copy in Arabic of the Jami al-Taw-ar-ikh or Universal History, without a doubt one of the greatest illustrated medieval manuscripts to have survived from either East or West. www.oup.com /ca/isbn/0-19-727627-X   (281 words)
