BOOK Of Riddles

摘要

It has been called the most mysterious manuscript in the world. Each page is filled with strange illustrations of medicinal plants, astrological diagrams and naked women. The whole book is bursting with long-forgotten secrets.rnThere's just one snag. Its 234 pages are written in an unknown script representing an unknown tongue, and despite nearly a century of study by the world's best cryptanalysts, academics and hobbyists, no one has ver-ifiably deciphered a single word. What has become known as the Voynich manuscript could be the ravings of a madman, a made-up language or an elaborate hoax to dupe a 16th-century monarch out of a small fortune in gold. Nobody knows.
