Isaacson chose da Vinci as the subject of this #1 New York Times bestseller because “Leonardo da Vinci is the ultimate example of … how the ability to make connections across disciplines – arts and sciences, humanities and technology – is a key to innovation, imagination, and genius.”
Based on thousands of pages from Leonardo’s astonishing notebooks and new discoveries about his life and work, Walter Isaacson’s tome shows how Leonardo’s genius was based on skills we can improve in ourselves, such as passionate curiosity, careful observation, and strong imagination.
- Takes place in the Kate Gleason Auditorium.
