 Earth, Supported by an Ox Floating on the Ocean. Anonymous scribe and 
 illustrator. Azerbaijan, 1552. Zakariya' ibn Muhammad al-Qazwini (Iran
 ian, 1203-1283), \"'Aja'ib al-makhluqat wa-ghara'ib al-mawjudat\" (Cre
 atures and phenomena marvelous and strange), p. 311. The Lawrence J. S
 choenberg Collection.\n\nIn this exhibition, the Getty Research Instit
 ute presents highlights from the an extraordinary collection of illust
 rated manuscripts. Displayed together publicly for the first time, the
 se manuscripts on the history of science and ideas demonstrate the cir
 culation of knowledge around the world and across cultures during the 
 medieval and early modern periods. Medieval Muslim and Christian medic
 ine, Chinese acupuncture, secret experiments in alchemical laboratorie
 s, codebooks for keeping secrets secret, and French and Persian vision
 s of the cosmos that blend science with spirituality are among the tre
 asures on display. These manuscripts were produced for caliphs, popes,
  merchants, and scientists. Copied and illustrated by hand, their cont
 ents—their ideas and visions—illustrate the human urge for knowled
 ge and creative invention.\nIntelligent Design\n\n<a href=\"http://www

 ), fol. 21r. The Lawrence J. Schoenberg Collection.\n\nOne of the earl
 iest known illustrations of human anatomy in the Islamic world appears
  in this standard \"desk reference,\" above, for Arabic and Persian ph
 ysicians. The color-coding of veins and arteries as blue and red is pr
 eserved in today's culture by the spiraling blue, red, and white strip
 es of a barber's pole, harking back to the days of the barber-surgeon 
 in the Middle Ages.\n\n<b>See <a href=\"http://api.ning.com/files/z0*g
