In
Beyond Leonardo, Avio takes us on a brilliant and enlightening exploration of
the very heart and soul of Leonardo da Vinci. It is on this in-depth journey
that we are challenged to reflect on our own vision of and relationship to
reality.

This book is not
merely a study of Leonardo; it is an invitation to awaken the latent potential
within us, inspired by a soul that deeply revered and explored the full breadth
of his humanity and creativity. It urges us to confront the vast, uncharted opportunities
that lie ahead with courage and openness.

We are on the cusp of
a transformation era in technology, one that challenges long-held paradigms.
Avio offers a glimpse into how Leonardo navigated the boundless possibilities
of his own time-the Renaissance-a period marked by unprecedented innovation and
discovery. His story encourages us to welcome change not with trepidation but
as a fertile ground for creativity, enabling us to release
outdated ideas and embrace the new with a sense of wonder and playfulness.

In Spanish, my name, Avio, translates as 'provisions for a journey'. In Italian, it means 'an aircraft'. Both are relevant. , I hope to be taking you on a journey through this book as I share with you my passion for the life and achievements of Leonardo Da Vinci. I hope that these provisions, provide satisfying food for your questioning mind, and also a means of rising above conventional thinking. It has been very inspirational for me to have spent the last 45 years literally following in Leonardo's footsteps by living in Tuscany, the land of his birth, an origin he shared with many of the other 'old masters'. Growing up in an artistic and musical family, I was very aware of his legacy and achievements. He appeared almost superhuman by the sheer volume of his work in so many different subjects. This fascinated me from an early age. Since his death over 500 years ago, I do not believe there has been anybody who has come anywhere near to matching his talents and achievements. The question is, 'why?' By looking back at his life, I have tried to answer that in this book, and to learn more about his philosophy on Life. By understands what made him tick, we can apply these principles to the complex lives we lead today and better understand what tomorrow will bring.
