The Woman Who Discovered Printing
Asks questions such as: Why is early Chinese printing so little acknowledged, despite anticipating Gutenberg by centuries? And why did printing in China not have the immediate obvious impact it did in Europe? This work brings us the answers through the story of Empress Wu (AD 625-705) and the revolution in printing that occurred during her rule.
