The book provides a reflection on some of the major innovations that have happened throughout global history. The principal theme in the book is that most of the major innovations we have witnessed over the years come from intersectionality. This means that the coming together of people and ideas from varied backgrounds improves the possibility of intellectual integration, which results in the development of new innovations. The other important aspect of the book is the coming together of a wide range of curious and skilled people who are responsible for igniting innovation during the Italian renaissance.
