This review is from: Leonardo da Vinci (International Library of Psychology) (Library Binding)

I respect leonardo deeply.Though there is not a lot of information about this mysterious person,freud should not jump to conclusions that leo is a person with homosexual instincts.Just simply having a few pieces of information ,freud still dare to voice it out.He himself also admitted he does not have much information,yet he still manage to write so many things about leo.However,freuds insight into other areas like pscho-analysis is wonderful.
