A great book and great read for anyone "able" to read this.
1 of 3 found this helpful I would like to start this review by mentioning that, as a result of discovering the beyond-excellent engineering of the Apple machines, I am a big fan of the product. I have always loved computers and embrace the power the PC gave me in functioning in that realm. What the computers were able to do, and in turn allowed us to do, is just amazing. Total liberation.
The Apple took it a step further with the production abilities. Be it music, photography or Film, among others. The seamless integration of on-board components, making for unimaginable processing, make it such an impressive experience. It gave me a chance to really express myself in a manner most meaningful to me. No longer am I stuck. How all this came together is vividly described in this book.
Steve Jobs is a genius that will go down in history along with the Shakespear's and Da Vinci's. An artist with a critical eye. However, the book sheds light on the entire spectrum of the tech world. From the innovations, set backs and triumphs. All the players are done justice. Steve Jobs, Bill Gates, Pixar-Disney etc., and the consumer are articulated in a way that does justice to the Legacy of Apple and Steve Jobs. A copy of this Book has a permanent place on my coffee table, just like my furniture and computers have their special places in my apartment. A great book and excellent read. I loved it.
I do, though, wish there was more on the nature of the relationships between Apple and peer companies. Why some products we not compatible with Apple. For example, how Steve Job's gripe with Adobe personnel was the reason Apple did not run Flash on its mobile devices, like the iPhone and iPad. Otherwise it was a great book.
