Revered today as perhaps the greatest of Renaissance painters, Leonardo da Vinci was a scientist at heart. The artist who created the Mona Lisa also designed functioning robots and digital computers, constructed flying machines, and built the first heart valve. His intuitive, ingenious approach,a new mode of thinking,linked highly diverse areas of inquiry in startlingly original ways, ushering in a whole new era. In Leonardo's Legacy , award-winning science journalist Stefan Klein provides an illuminating new look at Leonardo's unique genius" ( Publishers Weekly ), which delves into the brilliant, complex mind of this quintessential Renaissance man.
