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 and ingenious approach, a new mode of thinking, linked highly diverse areas of inquiry in startling new ways and ushered in a new era. In this work, the author, a science journalist, deciphers the forgotten legacy of this universal genius and demonstrates that today we have much to learn from Leonardo's way of thinking. The author sheds light on the mystery behind Leonardo's paintings, takes us through the many facets of his fascination with water, and explains the true significance of his dream of flying. It is a glimpse into the complex and brilliant mind of this inventor, scientist, and pioneer of a new world view, with profound consequences for our times. 000438883 546__ $$aTranslated from the German. 000438883 588__ $$aDescription based on print version record. 000438883 60000 $$aLeonardo,$$cda Vinci,$$d1452-1519. 000438883 650_0 $$aArtists$$zItaly$$vBiography. 000438883 650_0 $$aInventors$$zItaly$$vBiography. 000438883 650_0 $$aRenaissance$$zItaly$$vBiography. 000438883 655_7 $$aElectronic books.$$2lcsh 000438883 77608 $$iPrint version:$$aKlein, Stefan, 1965-$$sVermächtnis, oder, Wie Leonardo die Welt neu erfand.
