ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK 
"Leonardo da Vinci" by Walter Isaacson explores the life of the quintessential Renaissance figure, emphasizing his interdisciplinary approach as the key to his genius. The book delves into Leonardo's development as an artist, scientist, and engineer, tracing his journey from his early years in Vinci to his final days in France. It highlights his unique ability to connect seemingly disparate fields, seeing art and science as interconnected paths to understanding the world. The narrative emphasizes Leonardo's belief in learning from experience, his meticulous observation, and his insatiable curiosity, which led him to explore diverse fields such as anatomy, optics, hydraulics, and geology. The book also examines his complex personality, his personal relationships, and his habit of leaving projects unfinished, demonstrating how the process of discovery was as important to him as the final result.
