More than forty personal interviews with Steve Jobs over two years, and more than a hundred interviews with family, friends, rivals and colleagues, have allowed Walter Isaacson to tell the gripping story of the brilliant entrepreneur whose passion for perfection and ferocious charisma revolutionized six sectors of the economy and business: computers, animated films, music, telephones, tablets, electronic publishing. While the entire world is looking for a way to develop the economy of the digital age, Jobs stands out as the ultimate icon of inventiveness, because he intuited early on that the key to creating value in the twenty-first century is the combination of creativity and technology, and he built a company based on the connection between brilliant flashes of imagination and recognized technological inventions. Although he collaborated directly on the writing of this book, Jobs did not impose any constraints on the text or require anyone to read it before publication. And he did not place any filters, instead encouraging his acquaintances, family and rivals to tell the whole truth honestly. He himself speaks candidly, sometimes brutally, of colleagues, friends and enemies, who, in turn, reveal the passions, perfectionism, mastery, diabolical magic and obsession with control that characterised his approach to business and the ingenious products he created.
