À propos de cet audio
The author of the acclaimed best sellers Benjamin Franklin, Einstein, and Steve Jobs delivers an engrossing biography of Leonardo da Vinci, the world's most creative genius.
Leonardo da Vinci created the two most famous paintings in history, The Last Supper and the Mona Lisa. But in his own mind, he was just as much a man of science and engineering. With a passion that sometimes became obsessive, he pursued innovative studies of anatomy, fossils, birds, the heart, flying machines, botany, geology, and weaponry. His ability to stand at the crossroads of the humanities and the sciences, made iconic by his drawing of Vitruvian Man, made him history's most creative genius.
Now Walter Isaacson brings Leonardo da Vinci to life, showing why we have much to learn from him. His combination of science, art, technology, and imagination remains an enduring recipe for creativity. So, too, was his ease at being a bit of a misfit: illegitimate, gay, vegetarian, left-handed, easily distracted, and, at times, heretical. His relentless curiosity should remind us of the importance of instilling, in both ourselves and our children, not just received knowledge but a willingness to question it - to be imaginative and, like talented misfits and rebels in any era, to think different.
PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying reference material will be available in your Library section along with the audio.

A must-read for anyone before seeing Mona Lisa!
Loved all the back stories and descriptions of artistic & creative techniques used! I feel like this kind of book will give anyone a greater appreciation when viewing his work. I feel like I have a deeper appreciation for the science of art!

The trials and tribs of a man who actually failed a great deal but hit a few home runs. A lot of interesting things about da Vinci I didn't know! Check it out!

Reader does not read the whole book
I love the topic and determined to envelope myself into the novel I decided to purchase both the audible and the paper copies. But the reader only reads what he feels to be important, leaving out many sentences and paragraphs. It is talkie the reader is deciding how the book should have been written instead of just reading what the author in his wisdom
and with his talent wrote. How do you judge a book when it is only and excerpt of the true written word?

Not appropriate for audio
Interesting content but constant reference to pdf makes this unsuitable for audio only. It seemed disjointed and really key insights came from conclusion Might be a worthy read but not at all a good audio book
