NA A good approach to fulfill your life with specific steps. I was expecting much more, but the issue was not the book but my expectations... Leonardo started a lot of projects that he never finished -- but the ones he did finish are amazing. The author, after examining Leo's life, saw that there were seven habits or characteristics that seemed to guide da Vinci and make him the Renaissance man that he was. The purpose of this book is not to make us feel inadequate by comparing ourselves to the Maestro, but to give us a path to follow, so that we may emulate him in our lives as much as possible. The one drawback that our bookclub sees: we don't have wealthy patrons putting us up and giving us free rein to explore what we want. by reading this book I have discovered that I have a lot to improve on, but also that I've already been living according to some da Vincian principles.

Michael Gelb'sHow to Think Like Leonardo Da Vinciis an inspiring and inventive guide that teaches readers how to develop their full potential, using the principles of Da Vincian thought identified by the author. Beginning with a brief historical biography of Da Vinci and an overview of the astounding advances made in the arts and sciences during the Renaissance, Gelb illustrates the seven fundamental elements of Da Vinci's thought process: Questionare:A questing, insatiably curious approach to lifeDimostrazione:A commitment to test knowledge through experienceSensazione:The continual refinement of the senses, especially sight, as the means to clarify experienceSfumato:A willingness to embrace ambiguity, paradox and uncertaintyArte/Scienza:The development of the balance between science and art, logic and imagination. "Whole-brain" thinkingCorporalita:The cultivation of ambidexterity, fitness and poiseConnessione:A recognition and appreciation for the interconnectedness of all things and phenomena. "Systems" thinking. Loaded with practical exercises, quotes, sidebars, illustrations and material drawn directly from Da Vinci's personal notebooks,How to Think Like Leonardo Da Vinciis both a tribute to his great achievements and a call to carry on his legacy in our everyday lives by utilizing our potential to the best of our ability.

The book is divided into three parts: Part One includes a concise biography and list of Leonardo's accomplishments; while Part Two focuses on the "Seven Da Vincian Principles" that include curiosity, a focus on the senses, use of ambiguity and development of whole-brain thinking. While the principles are not unique to Leonardo, this presentation is particularly effective and helpful. Part Three discusses the art of drawing and perspective which is at the heart of Leonardo's art. The inclusion of a chronology of Leonardo's life, which spanned the last half of the fifteenth century into the first decades of the sixteenth, and a topical bibliography of recommended reading increases the value of this truly inspirational book.
