Steve Jobs by Walter Isaacson

Walter Isaacson, author of Steve Jobs, did his homework! He interviewed Steve, hundreds of friends and family members, colleagues and competitors, over several years to write this definitive work on one of America's most innovative, imaginative heroes - the founder of Apple Computers, Steve Jobs.

As a techie and fan of all things Apple, I couldn't wait to delve right in. It's a long book to read (630 pgs.), but I was able to stick with it as each story followed by another story zips right along. Steve Jobs lived a very private life yet he insisted on an openness for the author as he pursued his many interviews. The outcome is full insight into the mind and life of Steve Jobs.

This book is Steve Jobs' lasting legacy - his gift to the world. He passed away as Steve Jobs by Walter Isaacson was reaching bookstore shelves. The world will miss his creative genius. You may want to be inspired - just sit down in a comfy chair with this book.
