Around 2400 BC, the Egyptians made papyrus with reeds. As early as 200 BC, the Chinese invented paper from fibers from cotton, hemp or linen. In Europe, paper manufacturing developed with printing in 1436. After a detour to a paper mill, Fred and Jamy slip behind the scenes at the National Library to tell us the history of the book and its manufacture, and discover with us how the oldest of them are carefully restored there. "It's not rocket science", the science and discovery magazine presented by Fred, Jamy and Sabine. On board their laboratory truck, the three presenters take us to unusual and spectacular sites to explain the world around us.
