Leonardo Da Vinci

Excellent and well researched biography with copious references.

l'analisi è talmente approfondita e ad ampio spettro talché fa conoscere Leonardo nel proprio tormento investigativo che, praticamente, non conosceva limiti.Consiglio la lettura a tutti coloro che vogliono scoprire ciò che è bello e per il quale vale la pena vivere.

Excellent quality and delivered promptly.Highly recommended.

This book, I will read for some time. It is phenomenal in its detail and diversity. The insights it conveys into innovation and the world around us - through the eyes of Leonardo Da Vinci is superb. This is not a trivial book. It's no lightweight - nor could it be to convey the insights into humanity, science, and engineering. Buy the hardcover for the impact of the graphics. Stay with it - you will be glad you did.

Leonardo Da Vinci is my fifth book by Walter Issacson, and with Steve Jobs, by far my favourite one. I am no Leonardo specialist but after reading this book I have learned a great deal about this fascinating man. His modern approach to a 500 years old story is one of a kind. Issacson is a delightful author. Every subject he has approached so far has been so well documented that if you have only one book to read about Leonardo Da Vinci this is it.
