it was amazing
bookshelves: would-re-read

OMG great book, but not for the reasons most think. Steve Jobs is: a baby, a prick, a horrible father, a denier, and just a shitty person. This book shows how it is walking on the edge of sanity and awful of a person he is to work with. I still dont understand how it is so successful. I can call him a great marketer, but he was not a software engineer nor was he a man of the people. He hated the people. He was also a cry baby. Several time the author talks about his whininess which sometimes leads to tears. He was a hater of modern day medicine and was in favor of holistic meds and medication. Well he got cancer and by the time he went into the good ole hospital it was too late. I wonder where Apple would be if he were still here, but I do not think its a guarantee it would be better off.

One of my favorite books.
