How to Think like Leonardo da Vinci
Seven Steps To Genius Every Day
Michael J Gelb
ISBN 0-440-50827-4
U.S $13.95 softcover
This is a very interesting book that apparently was a best seller
a couple of years ago. Since I normally ignore best seller lists,
I just discovered this recently.
It is full of interesting questions, and methods to develop both
natural gifts, and acquire new ones.
Highly recommended.
Probably the most interesting fact I learned was that ole Leonardo
was quite the physical specimen as well as being a brain. It was
said that he had such grace that people would come out of the
stores just to watch him walk down the street. He was also said to
have stopped runaway horses in their tracks, and was legendary for
bending horseshoes with his bare hands.
I think he'd be quite comfortable here....
