Gli studi di Leonardo sul volo attraverso una trattazione sistematica e una descrizione del loro progredire nel corso del tempo. Il volume ricostruisce l'origine dell'idea leonardesca di realizzare il sogno del volo umano a partire dagli anni trascorsi a Firenze nella seconda metà del Quattrocento: un sogno che ha dovuto aspettare più di quattro secoli per essere realizzato. Descrive quindi gli sviluppi successivi della ricerca: dagli spettacolari progetti di macchine volanti elaborati nel periodo in cui Leonardo si trova a Milano, ospite di Ludovico il Moro, all'attento studio del volo degli uccelli portato avanti specialmente dopo il 1500. Un'indagine durata una vita intera, nell'utopia di una macchina in grado di imitare la natura.

"If man were meant to fly, he'd have wings." Luckily, the intrepid pioneers of aviation didn't let that little detail stop them. Dedicated to the history of human flight, this richly illustrated retrospective spans centuries of innovation from the drawings of DaVinci to the daring deeds of John Glenn. Strap yourself in for a thrilling, sometimes bumpy ride as the uncertain attempts of the medieval period give way to the excitement of the Wright Brothers' advances and eventually the sophistication of the Space Shuttle. Whether warplanes, transport and tourism crafts, acrobatic machines, seaplanes or helicopters capture your imagination, you'll find every type of aircraft described in vivid detail. Marvel as technology leads to the development of convertiplanes, 21st century superfighters, and the controversial Concorde. You'll even glimpse the future of air travel with prototypes of commercial airliners yet to be produced by Airbus and Boeing.

Leonardo is the greatest, most multi-faceted and most mysterious of all Renaissance artists, but extraordinarily, considering his enormous reputation, this is the first full-length biography in English for several decades. Prize-winning author Charles Nicholl has immersed himself for five years in all the manuscripts, paintings and artefacts to produce an 'intimate portrait' of Leonardo. He uses these contemporary materials - his notebooks and sketchbooks, eye witnesses and early biographies, etc - as a way into the mental tone and physical texture of his life and has made myriad small discoveries about him and his work and his circle of associates. Among much else, the book identifies what Nicholl argues is an unknown portrait of the artist hanging in a church near Lodi in northern Italy. It also contains new material on his eccentric assistant Tomasso Masini, on his homosexual affairs in Florence, and on his curious relationship with a female model and/or prostitute from Cremona. A masterpiece of modern biography.

Visionary Renaissance genius Leonardo da Vinci designed and sketched many inventions that were centuries ahead of their time.

Each realistic model provides insights into the incredible mind of Leonardo da Vinci. This kit is dedicated to da Vinci's remarkable life and amazing foresight in envisioning a world where flying machines are commonplace. This ebook includes: Full-color, step-by-step instructions for assembling the flying machine models Printable paper pieces for 13 different machines based on da Vinci's most original designs 11 of the models really fly! They include: The Ornithopter—a simple corkscrew that gracefully twirls to Earth The Kite Glider—an early version of a hang glider with a human pilot Leonardo's Flying Boat—look, up in the sky! It's a bird! It's a…boat? It's Leonardo da Vinci's crazy, mixed-up hybrid plane-boat! The Flying Fish and The Flitting Bird—two flying machines inspired by the natural world; both glide gracefully, just like their animal counterparts! Plus, 2 bonus display replicas: The First Helicopter—a detailed model that looks just like da Vinci's original sketch The Wing-testing Rig—the wing on this display model actually moves with the help of a lever!
