Steve Jobs by Walter Isaacson

4.0

---

Isaacon's book is impeccably written and illustrative of the great mind that was Steve Jobs although; I don't think Steve Jobs would have enjoyed this book. Isaacon was able to contemplate Job's Jekyll and Hyde personalities that lead him on the bumpy road to success and failure. Job’s was not particularly talented at anything in fact, but his creative thinking and intuition alongside his crazy drive for perfection led to some of the greatest products of our generation. To me, Jobs is a despicable person. The audacity in which he felt was necessary to treat other people and his complete lack of responsibility was appalling. Yet, you start to understand how is brain worked and what made it so remarkable. Isaacon has fully convinced me that Apple is doomed without Steve Jobs, although, I don’t think that was his intent.
