Nuland, a surgeon who wrote the award-winning , begins this brief biography by sketching out his "near-idolatrous fascination" with the life of Leonardo, a "creature of ideas" who "flashed across his time and was gone, leaving a vast body of work almost none of which except the paintings could be fully appreciated until centuries after his death." It's difficult not to be fascinated along with Nuland as his lovely prose delineates the life of the unschooled artist, anatomist, inventor, philosopher, architect. The work fits nicely in the hand, but lacks a subject index. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
