This new edition of Leonardo Da Vinci's Codex Leicester is the most
comprehensive scholarly edition of any of Leonardo's manuscripts.
It contains a high-quality facsimile reproduction of the Codex, a
new transcription and translation, accompanied by a paraphrase in
modern language and a page-by-page commentary, and a series of
interpretative essays. This important endeavour introduces
important new research into the interpretation of the texts and
images, on the setting of Leonardo's ideas in the context of
ancient and medieval theories, and above all into the notable
fortunes of the Codex within the sciences of astronomy, water, and
the history of the earth, opening a new field of research into the
impact of Leonardo as a scientist after his death.
