HOW TO THINK LIKE LEONARDO DA VINCI

So you're looking for a way to be brilliant and creative every day? Gelb describes da Vinci's life and accomplishments and theories on approaching life, then suggests how to apply these principles to your busy life. Actually, this book discusses how to organize your life and offers extensive exercises for self-application. Gelb overemphasizes words--all those that are capitalized or have more than two syllables--then switches rhythm when all the words are short and simple. Repetition of key phrases and theories reinforces the "how-to" theme. M.B.K. © AudioFile, Portland, Maine [Published: OCT/NOV 99]
