Planets, Potions, and Parchments is a heavily illustrated and informative catalogue published in conjunction with a major exhibition of the same name. The exhibition, presented by the Jewish Public Library, runs from May to September at the David M. Stewart Museum in Montreal. Both catalogue and exhibition explore the important yet often neglected Jewish contribution to the history of science.
