The book will tell you how our ancestors mastered literacy, created schools, passed on knowledge, and cared for health. You will learn what tsera and kharatya are, why birch bark became the most accessible material for notes, and how scientists discovered that not only princes could write, but also ordinary people.
A separate part of the book is devoted to doctors and treatment. Who are bloodletters, kilny and rezalniki, what operations did they perform, did hospitals exist, and could women practice medicine. The authors also discuss scientific treatises that have survived to this day and what healing was like in everyday life.
