Named engineering professor and FSTC chairman; useful for the double suction-pump reconstruction and manuscript-image identification, but an advocacy/popular-history survey, not an independent proof of worldwide priority. It gives book completion as 1206, whereas TDV gives 1205. Figure 6 is a reproduction of medieval manuscript art; Figure 7 is FSTC's copyrighted modern 3D model and is not reused. Page metadata reports publication 2001-02-09 and modification 2020-02-12; no assumption that all current captions existed on the original date.",
