'This is a riveting book, with as much to say about the transformation of modern life in the information age as about its supernaturally gifted and driven subject' - Telegraph Based on more than forty interviews with Steve Jobs conducted over two years - as well as interviews with more than a hundred family members, friends, adversaries, , and colleagues - this is the acclaimed, internationally bestselling biography of the ultimate icon of inventiveness. Walter Isaacson tells the story of the rollercoaster life and searingly intense personality of creative entrepreneur whose passion for perfection and ferocious drive revolutionized six industries: personal computers, animated movies,music, phones, tablet computing, and digital publishing. Although Jobs cooperated with this book, he asked for no control over what was written, nor even the right to read it before it was published. He put nothing off limits. He encouraged the people he knew to speak honestly. And Jobs speaks candidly, sometimes brutally so, about the people he worked with and competed against. His friends, foes, and colleagues provide an unvarnished view of the passions, perfectionism, obsessions, artistry, devilry, and compulsion for control that shaped his approach to business and the innovative products that resulted.

The biography is written so well, I have become a fan of the writer and also bought his biography of Elon Musk.

And what to say about Jobs. Imperfect guy, but perfect for me to learn from. Kinda have the same temperament and passion as him. His life's problems and his wrong and right decisions will teach one like me a lot.

Would've given this a 10 star if possible.

After reading this book, i feel enriched. This is a very well written book. After reading the book realized why Steve Jobs requested Walter Isaacson to write his biography. As described in the book, Steve Job was a visionary of magnificent products which married simplicity and perfection. Like wise this book is written in a very lucid language and has perfectly narrated Jobs life. As an Indian reader you are also exposed to the fact, that how sprituality rooted in India has inspired a western creator. You get to learn so much after reading it & also appreciate the fact that how successfully an innovator profess his philosophy "Simplicity is the best Shophistication" through his products.
Everyone who uses technology must read it.

1. Goes in detail about the genius of Steve jobs
2. Transparent details with context without favouring him
3. Explains his relationship with different beautifully. His personality is also explained
4. Only thing that could have been improved upon would be its slightly repetitive in few parts & also goes too much into details on his favourite artists , songs , few products which may not connect with audience from outside US
5. Overall a fantastic read , one of the best autobiographies ; Walter story telling style is fantastic

Reviewed in India on 24 December 2023

Isaacson has painted the life of Steve Jobs in front of your eyes, it is like watching a movie that captures your complete attention. While there is nothing that I can add to legend of Steve Jobs, the person who brought upon the revolution of personal computer, devoted his entire life to it. Not to mention, the device you're reading it on is also a personal computer (Your phone is also a computer).

In a sense, we are all living in a post-Steve Jobs era.

If a reader is capable to read between the lines of this book, s/he will soon discover for themselves the Steve Jobs biography by Walter Isaacson is, in fact, a business guide. Everything is in the biography from garage to mega corporation: the market, the first sale, the second one, the expansion… the global mega corporation. …
Very very valuable book. 5 stars, period.
And the last thing, Walter Isaacson’s books are so well written-you can’t stop reading any of it, is like sliding the slides down the hill in winter.

5.0 out of 5 stars Un'affascinante immersione nella vita di un visionario
Reviewed in Italy on 11 July 2023

Ho appena terminato di leggere "Steve Jobs: The Exclusive Biography" e sono ancora completamente immerso nel mondo affascinante di uno dei più grandi innovatori del nostro tempo. Questo libro, scritto con maestria da un autore esperto come Walter Isaacson, offre un'analisi approfondita della vita e delle opere di Steve Jobs, il co-fondatore di Apple.

La biografia è un'autentica pietra miliare che riesce a cogliere l'essenza di Jobs come persona e come leader carismatico. Isaacson ci conduce attraverso un viaggio emozionante, partendo dall'infanzia di Steve Jobs fino ai suoi trionfi e fallimenti nel mondo degli affari. L'autore non si limita a raccontare una sequenza di eventi, ma ci fornisce una comprensione intima di chi era realmente Steve Jobs e di cosa lo ha spinto a diventare l'uomo che ha cambiato il modo in cui viviamo e lavoriamo.

Uno degli aspetti più notevoli del libro è la sincerità con cui vengono descritte le sfaccettature complesse della personalità di Jobs. Isaacson non esita a mostrare i lati negativi del suo carattere, evidenziando la sua determinazione quasi ossessiva e il suo carattere spigoloso. Questo rende la narrazione ancor più coinvolgente, poiché ci permette di apprezzare appieno le sue realizzazioni straordinarie, ma anche di riflettere sulle conseguenze che il suo approccio può avere sulle relazioni personali e professionali.

La ricerca di Isaacson è encomiabile e la sua abilità nel raccogliere testimonianze e interviste di persone vicine a Steve Jobs aggiunge una dimensione autentica alla narrazione. Sono rimasto affascinato dai retroscena di Apple e dalle interazioni tra Jobs e altre figure chiave come Steve Wozniak e Tim Cook. La biografia offre una panoramica completa degli alti e bassi dell'azienda, comprese le decisioni coraggiose e i momenti di scontro che hanno plasmato l'industria tecnologica.

Inoltre, il libro affronta tematiche più ampie come l'importanza del design, l'innovazione e l'arte nella creazione di prodotti che cambiano il mondo. È stimolante leggere di come Jobs abbia integrato la sua passione per l'estetica nella filosofia di Apple, creando prodotti che hanno ridefinito gli standard dell'industria e hanno influenzato il modo in cui viviamo e ci connettiamo.
