Lazybee's Reviews > Steve Jobs

"People who are crazy enough to think they can change the world are the ones who do."

I always preferred heroes with faults, that way I can relate to them. Steve jobs is not a hero, at least to me. But you got to accept that he was an exceptional human.

Modern world need more people like him, not the technological savant, but who strive for a deeper meaning of life. Chances are that you wont be able to find the true meaning of life, if there is one. But the journey is a transcending one.

He was a flawed human, all humans are flawed, but he is a bit more flawed than others. It may be because of his carelessness about others feelings, may be because of arrogance or maybe because of his manipulation(motivation, depends on how you look at it) of others. After all is said and done he was a combination of art and technology. I liked him. I always appreciate people's flaws, they are traits of being human.

Enough about Steve's life, let's get in to the book. The style of narration was good. How Walter creates a chain of events are really beautiful. When he mentions a new character in the book, he will tell us a bit about his/her personality, his role in the society and his importance in Steve's life. I cannot explain how I felt, trust me, its awesome.
And how he tries to convey the emotions of characters through words are commendable. All the characters are given importance.

Last but not the least, wozniak. I loved that guy. He, who made apple with steve jobs, is the best character in the book.

Read it. Its not as interesting as fantasy, but it do come close.
