There are thousands of titles about Leonardo da Vinci, pushing and pulling for space on virtual and actual bookshelves, but there is only one book about the real note-maker, Zoroastro. "The Stolen Notebooks" is a cultural epiphany. Leonardo da Vinci did not create the Notebooks. Therefore, based mostly on notes he didn't write, his life story is widely faked.Delving into reasons biographers assume Leonardo da Vinci wrote the Notebooks, hunting down sources and original texts, international art historian Dr Susan Grundy exposes the lie. It was only Leonardo's young heir and artistic protégé Milanese Francesco Melzi who said these were Leonardo's notes. Written right to left and back to front in Eastern fashion, when the Notebooks became more accessible in the nineteenth century the world met a man who wasn't Leonardo da Vinci, a man with many occupations outside of art, and who seemed to be from the East. Yet the scholarly world continues on, blithely promoting Leonardo da Vinci as the world's greatest genius based on words he didn't write, diagrams he didn't draw, and objects he didn't invent. They have him follow careers he wasn't qualified for or experienced in. Questions arise as to how sources are injudiciously used to sustain the fake claim Leonardo da Vinci was the note-maker, when even he never made this claim. In his Will Leonardo stated simply his calling had been as a Painter. If Leonardo wasn't the note-maker, then the crucial question becomes who was. This book is easily accessible to both scholars and to those with an interest in the general subject matter. It can be read from start or finish, but is also designed so that individual sections make sense in their entirety.________________________"The Stolen Notebooks" also demonstrates the autograph status of many artworks relies on the assumption of Leonardo da Vinci's authorship of the Notebooks. Illustrated on the cover is a detail from a painting now attributed to Leonardo da Vinci, "The Annunciation" (c.1472). The city depicted is not the usual faux scene of Tuscany imagined as the Holy Land, but is shown as a bustling contemporary Muslim port, the landscape a capriccio with a huge sugar loaf mountain that is certainly not found anywhere in Italy.

Delving into reasons biographers assume Tuscan painter Leonardo da Vinci wrote the Notebooks, hunting down sources and original texts, South African art historian Susan Grundy uncovers it was only Leonardo’s young heir Milanese Francesco Melzi who said these were the artist's Notebooks. In the nineteenth century European scholars began to access these Notebooks in more depth, transcribing the arcane backwards Italian and translating them into English. They discovered a man who did not seem to be Tuscan Leoanrdo da Vinci, as he seemed to be a man from the East. Yet, this reality was closed down by researchers determined to continue with the myth of the self-educated genius from a farm in Tuscany.

Darwin's Notebook is a biography of the great man, but a biography with a difference. As you would expect, it provides a full and detailed account of Darwin's life and discoveries, but it is written, designed and illustrated to look like - as the title suggests - a personal notebook or journal.By mining the rich sources of his own journals and incorporating a wide range of quotations and primary sources, Darwin's Notebook brings its subject to life more vividly than any ordinary history book or biography, revealing the man behind the theory of evolution. Additional chapters examine Darwin's early life and education, his family life, his later writings, the reactions to his work and his long-term legacy.
