'Tweeting da Vinci,' authored by Ann C. Pizzorusso, reveals how Italy's geology has affected its history, art, religion, medicine and culture. Her beautiful book is packed with facts, full-color photos, paintings, sketches and illustrations. She follows in the tradition of writers such as John McPhee and Steven Jay Gould who are able to present complex aspects of geology in a friendly, almost poetic style.
Pizzorusso's real genius, however, is in her ability to stitch together widely diverse topics such as gemology, folk remedies, grottoes, painting literature, physics and religionusing geology as a thread. Quoting everyone from Pliny the Elder to NASA physicist Friedemann Freund, Pizzorusso's work is solidly backed scholarship that reads as easily as a summer novel.
Wonderfully illustrated and crammed with information, this book is perfect for the traveler (armchair or actual) wishing to visit these exciting places, trivia buffs and scholars alike.
About the author: Ann C. Pizzorusso is a geologist and Italian Renaissance scholar. After many years of doing virtually everything in the world of geologydrilling for oil, hunting for gems, cleaning up pollution in soil and groundwater, she turned her geologic skills toward Leonardo da Vinci.
