Hitler's Mein Kampf and a 4,500-year-old peace treaty - the world's oldest - represent opposite poles in the eternal human struggle between the propulsion to war and the desire for peace.

They are among 135 priceless manuscripts, books, documents and other items on display at a new Swiss exhibit near Geneva, housed in the sprawling basement of the Martin Bodmer Foundation.
