Leonardo da Vinci was not only a painter but also a scientist, military advisor, and stage director. He conducted independent research in various fields such as optics, geometry, and anatomy, revolutionizing multiple disciplines and leaving behind timeless masterpieces. This book delves into the secrets of his extraordinary genius based on his extensive collection of handwritten notes.
The author, known for his definitive biography of Steve Jobs, explores the life of Leonardo da Vinci by deciphering 7200 pages of his personal notes. This book aims to uncover the true identity of the world's first "creator" and provides a definitive biography of the legendary figure. The choice to write about Leonardo da Vinci stems from the fact that he embodies the theme I have consistently pursued as a biographer. His ability to connect different domains such as art, science, humanities, and technology is the key to innovation, imagination, and extraordinary insights.
