Leonardo's Notebooks: Writing and Art of the Great Master (Notebook Series) Flexibound – September 24, 2013

Took a chance on the flex binding and it’s excellent. Book is as well done as more expensive versions,

As described…thank you!

Very nice book. Skimmed through it briefly and it has complete notes translated to English. Very happy with quality and content, lots of his illustrations.

This is a great book that I had been looking forward to getting for a while. The images and writting is good, although a bit hard to understand at times. The ONLY problem I have with this book that gets it a 4 out of 5 stars for me is the fact that it is so tall and wide. Granted it makes looking at the pictures much easier but it also makes storage of this book MUCH harder. The book is to tall to stand on any but the top shelf on all of my book shelfs and it is so wide that it protudes from the edge of the shelf.Don't let this distract you from getting this book however. It's detailed pictures are wonderful considering the orginal size of the works and the translations help with the reading. There's a section for each catagory, such as anatomy and lighting, which really helps if you want to look at certain types of works. The greatness of these pictures will have you looking at each page for hours, just to see all the details.I would suggest this book for anyone from an art lover to a history fanatic. I use it as a reference book for one of my drawing classes. It's a great buy for anyone and everyone.

The book is incredible and the flexbond is completely worth the price. Couldn't care less for having a hardcover for the price this was.

If you revel in the brilliant mind of Da Vinci and love his drawings. You will love this book. Really extensive and well put together collection of his works.

For those who think of Leonardo as simply an unsurpassed visual artist of the Italian Renaissance, this book will be an eye-opener to his philosophical smarts. An intellectual goldmine from an undisputed artist.

This book was very well written, representing A lot of research and hard work. I enjoyed reading it. Leonardo was a very advanced thinker for his time.
