false <![CDATA[The Da Vinci Notebooks]]> http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1172810339m/220556.jpg 24096 33 Leonardo da Vinci (1452-1519) possessed arguably the greatest mind the world has ever known. Artist, draftsman, inventor, and philosopher, his contributions to modern society are profound and wide-reaching. Throughout his life, Leonardo kept dozens of notebooks, elegant studies on topics ranging from architecture to botany to philosophy—indeed nearly anything of which the human imagination could conceive. <br><br> <em>Leonardo’s Notebooks</em> collects a variety of the most fascinating of these studies and compiles them into one monumental volume that demystifies his insights and clearly illustrates his ideas, experiments, and observations with hundreds of his original sketches, line drawings, and paintings. Topics include Anatomy and the Movement of the Human Figure; Botany and Landscape; Engineering and Military Engineering; Physical Sciences; Aerodynamics and Flight; Geography—and more. 25010 1956 Leonardo's Notebooks total:179|5:83|4:67|3:27|2:0|1:2| 179 766 403 15 4 0 false false Mon Jun 15 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Sat Oct 10 12:33:22 -0700 2009 Sat Oct 10 12:37:45 -0700 2009 more...]]> 4 1 false false Sat Feb 28 00:00:00 -0800 2009 Thu Feb 26 08:37:05 -0800 2009 Fri Mar 06 15:47:25 -0800 2009 1 3 0 false false Wed Sep 16 23:00:50 -0700 2009 Sat Sep 12 17:30:27 -0700 2009 Wed Sep 16 23:00:50 -0700 2009
