PART OF - 100 leadership & success books to read in a lifetime

'This is a riveting book, with as much to say about the transformation of modern life in the information age as about its supernaturally gifted and driven subject' - Telegraph

Based on more than forty interviews with Steve Jobs conducted over two years - as well as interviews with more than a hundred family members, friends, adversaries, competitors, and colleagues - this is the acclaimed, internationally bestselling biography of the ultimate icon of inventiveness.

Walter Isaacson tells the story of the rollercoaster life and searingly intense personality of creative entrepreneur whose passion for perfection and ferocious drive revolutionized six industries: personal computers, animated movies,music, phones, tablet computing, and digital publishing.

Although Jobs cooperated with this book, he asked for no control over what was written, nor even the right to read it before it was published. He put nothing off limits. He encouraged the people he knew to speak honestly. And Jobs speaks candidly, sometimes brutally so, about the people he worked with and competed against. His friends, foes, and colleagues provide an unvarnished view of the passions, perfectionism, obsessions, artistry, devilry, and compulsion for control that shaped his approach to business and the innovative products that resulted.

A must read!!

23 September 2017

Format: PaperbackVerified Purchase

I am not a fan of Apple products. I also dont own one of them. Many of my friends despised Steve Jobs and used to tell me stories about his part in the development of Apple being negligible. I wanted to know the truth. Trust me this book is a jewel. Not just for those who admire him but also for all tech nerds. There is so much described about the times of early inventions in electronic industry to present day iphone. All of this is beautifully wound around Jobs' story and he fist perfectly into that world. I wish i were alive during that time to witness all that he achieved. I surely believe he put a dent to the universe!

I recommend to read this, to those who love apple and Jobs but I insist to those who hate him. You will love him by the time you reach the end and wish there was more to read.

Passionate Leader believing in simplicity

8 April 2018

Format: Kindle EditionVerified Purchase

Steve was passionate, dominant and wanted to control everything related to products he designed, developed, marketed. He hurt many people in his professional career and didn’t care about it.
I like the part which describes Steve’s Distortion Reality Field and simplicity is ultimate sophistication.
I recommend this book to the Apple product users. I am a big fan and used of most Apple product (and now became fan of Steve Jobs) while reading this book I could correlated all the sequence of event happened in Apple and how the great products were made.
Well written Walter.

Remarkable biography of the man as the man himself is

14 September 2016

Format: PaperbackVerified Purchase

Very few people had imagined the way PC and smartphones would change the world until Steve Jobs did it actually, with his undaunted leadership and ability to simplify everything from user interface to the hardware design which had led to the creation of astonishing and brilliant devices which always challenged and raised the status quo in every market segment it ever entered.

This book goes through all the ups and downs of his social and professional life, covering all the intricacies involved during his lifetime which led to the birth of Apple as it is today. It also explains his reality distortion field which played a very crucial role in developing a remarkable user friendly products.

He revolutionized whole music, journalism and book publishing industries through the digitalization of music, magazines, books and news, which itself led to the creation of multibillion dollars app industry as we all see today.
He always believed in end-to-end control of right from the device design (which includes both hardware and user interface), raw materials used and manufacturing process to its marketing and sales of devices till it reaches hand of the users. He always strive to perfect every aspect of device even if the user didn't notice it.

All he cares about is perfection in everything he ever did or ever wanted to do, his creations has unambiguously pushed the human race forward.

Thru Cons and Pros! Still a 5 starer for me.

6 August 2018

Format: PaperbackVerified Purchase

I am not an avid reader so please, if you are looking for a proper book review then please back off.
Now talking about the book built and overview, then let me tell you that the pages quality is low but won't tear away even after a rugged use. Yes, the paperback is of a low quality then a usual quality in other books, but it is still ok for me (but not necessarily the same in your case). Overall I found the book a perfect reader's choice for everyone. So, just move ahead of the cons and focus on the ultimate pro that is inscribed in the book.

A good read on what makes Apple so different to other product companies

16 April 2019

Format: PaperbackVerified Purchase

For all readers - whether you know something about Steve Jobs or Apple or not or hate/love their products (my disclaimer - I use all his products and love them for their simplicity and easy to use features).

The book is divided in two parts - Page 1 to 300 covers Steve's early life, battles, tantrums, courting & appointment of Sculley, Steve being removed, and joining Pixar. This is all rather drab and widely available information in print & web so nothing new. Its slow going and I kept the book down several times as the slow pace wore me out.

However, page 300 onward when Steve returns to Apple is when the book makes up for the first half. A - we understand the motivation for the 'i' series of products, B - we understand his need for simplicity, and C - we understand his micro managing every function to the nth degree. Steve drew his inspiration from several sources and all of them converged on the customer as the focal point. Simplicity came from purity or his definition of practical issues that a customer would face and how to solve them. Micro management is important and some people may say its a bad thing however when your vision runs several years ahead, you have to micro manage to get the best out of people and also for them to realize that they can achieve it. It's part of the process to make things better for everyone.

Apple is a great consumer product company and despite the naysayers, it has been built to last. The innovativeness that people predicted will die with Steve just has not happened and nor will it ever as long as the culture of innovation continues at Apple. 3M had an innovative culture and when James McNerney brought in processes to manage innovation, 3M became a laggard. Once the CEO changed and the innovation culture was reignited, 3M is back and doing extremely well. Same is the case with Apple.

They will continue with Innovation, Simplicity, Customer Delight, and make products that create a burning desire to own them.
