English Summary/英文概要： Bestselling author Leonard Shlain explores the life, art, and mind of Leonardo da Vinci, whose achievements in art, science, psychology, and military strategy are unparalleled. Arguably, no other person in human history has excelled in so many different areas. Using the latest scientific research into left-right brain function, Shlain peels back the layers to explain the how and the why.
Shlain asserts that Leonardo’s genius came from a unique creative ability that allowed him to understand and excel in a wide range of fields. From here Shlain jumps off and discusses the history of and current research on human creativity that involves different modes of thinking and neuroscience .The author also boldly speculates on whether or not the qualities of Leonardo’s brain and his creativity presage the future evolution of the human species.
Leonardo’s Brain uses Da Vinci as a starting point for an exploration of human creativity. With his lucid style, and his remarkable ability to discern connections in a wide range of fields, Shlain brings the reader into the world of history’s greatest mind.
