In all chaos there is a cosmos, in all disorder a
secret order.

The book is an encyclopedia in manuscript with
copious hand-drawn colored-pencil illustrations of
bizarre and fantastical flora, fauna, anatomies,
fashions, and foods. It has been compared to the
Voynich manuscript, Tlön, Uqbar, Orbis Tertius,
and the works of M.C. Escher and Hieronymus
Bosch.
The illustrations are often surreal parodies of
things in the real world: bleeding fruit; a plant
that grows into roughly the shape of a chair and is
subsequently made into one; a lovemaking couple
that metamorphoses into an alligator; etc.

Others depict odd, apparently senseless machines,
often with a delicate appearance, kept together
by tiny filaments. There are also illustrations
readily recognizable as maps or human faces. On
the other hand, especially in the "physics" chapter,
many images look almost completely abstract.
Practically all figures are brightly coloured and
rich in detail.
