I would recommend this book. Great story.

Job's own thoughts on education and business.

Top Notch

Yes

I love the way Steve was able to build a company based on his understand and insight in to what people want. His passion for purity in product, user experience, and life is second to none. This book did not change how I feel about him or the ability of other companies to become Apple like, but it did give me hope that more senior corporate leadership will turn their focus on developing quality products and experiences not just more price point driven crap that is unfulfilling in so many ways.

I have to admit that I am an apple product enthusiast so that was my initial draw to this book. That said, this book is a great listen from head to toe even if you don't like or use apple products. Jobs is a flawed man and a harsh employer but his story of pursuing perfection is wild, fantastic and worth every minute.

Isaacson is a wonderful writer who can keep a reader engaged even through the mundane events necessary in the telling of a biography. Jobs of course is an icon of our age and I'm so glad that someone with the stature and capacity of Walter Isaacson was engaged to document his life and accomplishments. Recommended to all but with a special emphasis to my fellow long time Apple users.

This book rates near the top of the 50+ audiobooks I have listened to in the last year.

I think

Dylan Baker's narration is quite good.

Steve Jobs was a unique individual.

Good book on a very interesting man. Could have taken out a few of the similar stories showcasing Steve's character.

I am 45 years old and I grew up in the shadows of his accomplishments. I am more like Woz and prefer an open system to do with as I please, but I admire all the innovation Steve Jobs gave to all of us. He thinks all other products are crap? he should know how crappy those products would have been if they were not forced to compete with his works of art. I'm a PC, but he truly did create art, and force others to live up to their potential and create art also.

The author did a wonderful job of being objective, we truly get to know Steve Jobs, more so in a way than people who have known him personally. I am sure they too will learn more from reading... Listening to this book.

N/A

WOW, um.... no its over 20 hours long.

God bless Steve jobs, the world will be a much darker place with out him.

I thouroughly enjoyed the listen and actually finished the almost 24 hours in about 48. I was very interested in the story and the reader was very good. I would have liked to have heard more, like maybe an update after his death or more detail about his wife's and kid's opinions. Maybe that can be added later. If you have any interest in the man and how everything fit together, you'll enjoy this listen.

I'm not a rabid fan of all things Apple, but I thoroughly enjoyed this book. It is very well written, and the cultural education about the computer revolution are invaluable. Excellent read and well worth the time.

The book revealed his great sides and his dark sides equally.

His impersonation of Steve Jobs made you feel it was read by Steve Jobs.

It's amazing to see how very raw and narcissistic he was and yet how out of that came such greatness and such inspiration.

I normally don't listen to books twice.

Insight into the personality of Steve Jobs.

Read the book like he had written it. Excellent narrator.

No but enjoyed it when I could get to it.

Never knew Jobs was such a difficult person.
