  • Why the painting exhibited at the Louvre Museum is not the Mona Lisa?
  • Why do we find so many pagan symbols in Leonardo’s Christian representations?
  • Was Leonardo really the son of a notary and a slave?
  • Why is there such a lack of works from Leonardo’s early life — perhaps his most important period?
  • Why do we have paintings of the Americas well before the first trips of Christopher Columbus?

Thanks to the new insights presented by This is not Leonardo, the dogmatic prism that our Western society has employed for so long to understand Leonardo da Vinci can now finally be challenged.

Surely a candidate for best book about Leonardo da Vinci ever written

A plant that for thousands of years (so, since the dawn of time), has been a companion of humanity, but for the past century has become the object of police force attention around the world. Why those prohibitions, why is this plant banned from the agricultural, industrial, and pharmaceutical sectors, in which it had been for centuries? A plant that with extreme struggles, but just as much strength, is re-emerging from the limbo of illegality in many parts of the world. This book documents a "green revolution" that has a solid cultural background, well beyond recreational use, narrated in an outstanding manner by one of its chief protagonists.
