//Steve Jobs// by Walter Isaacson is the story of co-founder of Apple Inc. and Pixar Animation, Steve Jobs. Isaacson has rounded up all of the interviews with Jobs and his friends to make this book true and resourceful. It shows the true life of Steve Jobs, and what he does outside of technology. You can learn about how Steve Jobs met co-founder of Apple, Steve Wozniak, and how Apple started. But, yet there was his drug addiction and bad personal life. But, you can explore the entire life of our time's Thomas Edison. I would reccomend this book to any technology lover, and whoever is getting into it. Reviewed by Daniel B.

 * //­//**Are you interested in computers? Are you an owner of a small business and looking for answers? Do you wonder how a hippie, drug addict, and guy who got his girlfriend pregnant at age 23 became successful? Well, this book provides all the answers. Based on over 45 interviews with Jobs along with over a hundred friends, family, co-workers, and competitors, Walter Isaacson gives an accurate account of the crazy ballad of Steve Jobs’ life. At a time when America is looking for innovation and change, Jobs stands out like pink shirt in a Goth rally. With his intelligence, he realized that the ultimate product means connecting creativity with technology, thus producing Apple. Despite Steve Jobs’ emotional instability and bossiness, Jobs did not want to influence the format of the book; he handed the baton to Isaacson. Driven by demons, Jobs could drive those around him to fury and despair, yet my the same token, he could boost their self-confidence and make them feel on top of the world. This was just part of his personality. His tale is instructive and cautionary, filled with lessons and riddled with values along with lessons about innovation, creativity, and leadership. I recommend this to anyone who likes having fun.
