Read books about da Vinci to experience his life
Hundreds, maybe thousands books about Leonardo da Vinci are sold. During studying him I read several great inspiring biographies documents.
I have selected several of them, of course the best of all to experience his life and way of thinking. A top 3 per category, such as biography / paintings / renaissance,
Hopefully, it also inspires you to learn to think like da Vinci. His way of thinking could support us to become more successful in life and to create together a more peaceful human civilization.
Have fun with reading the next books:
