The book is called "In the Beginning Was The Word, The power and glory of illuminated Bibles", edited by Andreas Fingernagel & Cristian Gastgeber. Taschen. Apart it's many illustrations, it also contains precious information about the work of scribes, their tecknique and the organisation of monasteries. It also tours the whole world, from Europe to the Middle East. I just think it's a great, useful book.

I know the book. I have given to my father as a birthday present, it is really beautiful and makes one dream.
