About this listen

Leonardo da Vinci didn’t fit into history. He exploded through it.

Painter. Engineer. Anatomist. Inventor. Visionary. Bastard son of a peasant with no formal education, and still the most complete human mind the world has ever seen.

This book isn’t just a biography. It’s a front-row seat to the impossible.

Leonardo takes you inside the brain of a man who painted the most famous face on Earth, sketched helicopters in the 1400s, dissected corpses to understand beauty, and wrote in mirrored code while inventing robots no one would build for centuries.

He didn’t separate art and science. He didn’t follow disciplines. He followed truth. And he left behind a world forever warped by the intensity of his attention.

If you’ve ever felt too curious, too scattered, or too strange for the world around you, meet the prototype.
