A fascinating book with very detailed imagery & pop-ups...a few even took it to a second level using pull tabs or string. Gave it as a gift and just had to have one for myself too!

I actually ended up buying more than one copy of this book for gifts (including one for myself!) Adults and kids alike are fascinated with all the informations and the pop-ups. It is a nicely made book.

Bought this for my son for Christmas who is going to college for engineering. He absolutely loved it. The way the inventions pop up and can be moved is wonderful.

A gorgeous, detailed book with very complex pop-ups that will be appreciated by collectors and those with an interest in the arts or engineering. For da Vinci fans this book is a feast of beautiful, three dimensional models based on his own drawings with wonderful commentary. This book would not be suitable for young children as the models are very complex and some require fiddly manipulation.

I purchased this as a gift for a male friend of mine who works in maintenance and engineering. He seemed very pleased with this book. I liked it too. An interesting twist on the pop-up book genre.

this is a magnificent book for almost any age
I bought it for my grandson and my son won't part with it

Great fold out 3D type da Vinci contraptions. Visually stimulating with good write ups explaning devices.

I bought this book and sat it on our coffee table and as soon as a guest see's it they can't resist picking it up and thumbing through the pages, "ooo-ing and ahhhh-ing" over the cool pop ups. Definitively a great buy!

Thank you for shipping the book so promptly. It arrived in the pristine shape that you had tagged it.
