About the book

The Notebooks of Leonardo da Vinci bring together selections from the extraordinary manuscripts left by the Renaissance artist, scientist and inventor. Leonardo recorded observations on anatomy, engineering, optics, flight, painting, mechanics and countless other subjects. The notebooks reveal both the astonishing range of his curiosity and the unusual way in which artistic imagination and scientific inquiry worked together in his thought. The notebooks provide a remarkable glimpse into a mind driven by relentless curiosity and close observation.
