"Leonardo was the foremost genius of the Italian Renaissance, and perhaps the most versatile genius that ever lived. In the preparation of this book 37 of the leading scholars in Europe examined each phase of Leonardo's many activities, and contributed a section on it ... This volume is the outcome of the effort first undertaken in 1938 to bring together all the data, materials and reconstructions concerning Leonardo da Vinci into one comprehensive show" --- from jacket notes by Giorgio De Santillana.
