"Awesome motivation love acceptance"
Great depiction of a great man faults, assets, love, it's all there. Incredible story of a man who changed the world.
"I loved it"
The story was amazing and the narrator is just as good as the story.
Overall this is one of the best audio book I will recommend to everyone I know
"Inspiring"
As I read this book I realize I just been standing not moving forward and that I needed to do more and I am
"Handbook"
What a great guide for those with the entrepreneurial spirit. Well written by Isaacson and the narration was spot on.
"Wonderfully produced "
Great book, wonderful production, and an amazing story. Inspires me to be uncompromising in my beliefs.
"Simply Great"
Rarely we are afforded the opportunity to meet the great ones that walk the earth, and even more rarely we get the opportunity to have them share with us their insights. This author was granted both and masterfully, and perhaps inspired by the subject, put it into words. I now really know Steve Jobs. Thank you.
"Well-balanced, extensively researched biography"
I was very impressed with the ability of the author to reveal all of Steve's most unsavory (in my opinion) qualities, yet still have me crying by the end of the book because I hold so much respect for what he accomplished and for who he was, even if he was often an unethical jerk. I did have to take a break from the audiobook several times in the beginning because I'd get very angry, but like I said, the author balances it all out in the end.
I haven't listened to any of Dylan Baker's other performances, but he did a wonderful job. His performance was right for a biography - not over the top, and also not monotone.
From what I understand, there will be a film (or another film, I should say). Whenever I recommend this book to someone and they tell me, "I've already seen the movie," I have to laugh. When you compare the amount of information contained in this book to the movie, it doesn't even have a paragraph. If you really want to know about Steve Jobs's life, you need to read this book. I don't use the word amazing very often (even though it is very common in the English vernacular), but this book fits that description.
