A Hesam's Reviews > Steve Jobs

1. Isaacson has done a marvelous job on enlightening the world on the many facets of Jobs' personality, giving you many well-founded reasons to either love or hate the guy. Forget everything you thought you knew about Steve Jobs and enjoy the journey of the life of an incredibly intriguing business man. You will learn to appreciate him as an 'interesting' friend, foe and father. It is an understatement to state that Isaacson has done his homework on this one.

2. You don't need to be a tech-guru to grasp the connotations of even the most detailed jargon Isaacson used in describing certain stories. Believe me when I say that you will not get annoyed by the technical terms used here and there.

3. It will kindle or reignite at least one of the fires that represent amongst other things courage, determination or perseverance. Reading about the hardships that Jobs had to overcome to gain respect and his drive for his idealistic view on products will undoubtedly force you to reflect on your own life no matter what age. You will also learn what not to do. "Mistakes will be made along the way. That's good. Because at least some decisions are being made along the way" [Steve Jobs, 1997].
