Description: Leonardo da Vinci.By Walter Isaacson. C. 2017. First Edition. In English, 599 pages. Hardcover with Dust Jacket, 9 1/2" x 6 1/2".This book is based on thousands of pages from Leonardo da Vinci’s astonishing notebooks and new discoveries about his life and work. Walter Isaacson deftly reveals an intimate Leonardo in a narrative that connects his art to his science. He shows how Leonardo’s genius was based on skills we can improve in ourselves, such as passionate curiosity, careful observation, and an imagination so playful that it flirted with fantasy. Also, Isaacson describes how Leonardo’s delight at combining diverse passions remains the ultimate recipe for creativity. So, too, does his ease at being a bit of a misfit: illegitimate, vegetarian, left-handed, easily distracted, and at times heretical. His life should remind us of the importance to be imaginative and, like talented rebels in any era, to think different.The book is in like new condition. There is light shelf wear to the cover. The internal pages are clean and crisp, and the binding is tight.FREE SHIPPING (USPS Media Mail) WITHIN USA ONLY! We WILL NOT ship our eBay items outside USA.
