Description
The Steve Jobs the headlines missed. Few business figures fascinate like Steve Jobs — and this book shows you the side the headlines missed. Written by veteran journalists Brent Schlender and Rick Tetzeli and published in 2015, this biography draws on more than two decades of interviews with Jobs himself, his family, and his closest colleagues.
Rather than retelling the legend of a born genius, it traces how a reckless, hot-tempered young founder grew into a disciplined, visionary leader. You will follow Jobs from his humiliating 1985 ouster from Apple, through the hard lessons of NeXT and the creative triumph of Pixar, to his return — and the string of world-changing products that followed: the iMac, the iPod, the iPhone, the iPad.
You will meet the people who knew him best — Tim Cook, Jony Ive, Bill Gates, and others — and see how Jobs learned to trust others, focus relentlessly, and pair art with engineering. If you want more than the myth and crave the real story of how a leader is made, this book belongs on your digital shelf.
