Kemp elucidates what he calls Leonardo's "thinking on paper." In this handsome reproduction of notebook pages, Kemp annotates the great Renaissance artist and inventor's brilliant doodles, which range across a wide intellectual landscape from geometry and the effects of light on objects to human anatomy, perpetual motion machines, and Leonardo's methodical preparations for the technical challenges of masterpieces such as the Mona Lisaand The Last Supper.
