Sinossi
Ha cambiato la vita a milioni di persone. Un genio indiscusso, certo. Molti però lo hanno descritto come un uomo freddo, intollerante ed egoista. Ma chi era davvero Steve Jobs? E come ha fatto, da giovane sconsiderato e arrogante qual era, esiliato dalla società che aveva fondato, a diventare il leader più visionario dei nostri tempi? "Steve Jobs Confidential" risponde a queste e a molte altre domande. Brent Schlender - che in venticinque anni ha intervistato più volte Jobs, traendone registrazioni ufficiali e non - e Rick Tetzeli hanno avuto accesso a testimonianze incredibili, mai riportate prima, e ci svelano una storia molto diversa da quella che conosciamo: quella di un ragazzo pieno di contraddizioni, che non sopportava le gerarchie, girava scalzo per la sua azienda ed era buddista, ma al contempo capitalista. Quella di un essere umano che ha lottato con i suoi difetti e ha imparato a massimizzare i suoi punti di forza. Quella di un uomo che, col tempo, è diventato più paziente, ha imparato a fidarsi dei suoi collaboratori oltre che del suo istinto. Con stile narrativo, gli autori raccontano uno Steve inedito attraverso confessioni esclusive di amici e parenti di Jobs e conversazioni con le persone che meglio lo conoscevano, come Tim Cook, Jony Ive, Ed Catmull e John Lasseter. Queste pagine ricostruiscono un sorprendente ed emozionante ritratto del genio di Apple.

Recensioni
There has been a lot of press about this book on Steve Jobs. Most recently, the senior management at Apple made a point in emphasizing their support of the Schlender and Tetzeli book as superior to the Walter Isaacson authorized biography that was published shortly after Jobs died. The claim is that Leggi tutto
There's quite a bit of press about this book setting the record straight vis a vis Walter Isaacson's authorized biography, but I don't really like all that fuss. Let's leave negative talk about Walter Isaacson's book out of it. This book is really good. I'm inspired by Steve Job's restlessness and i Leggi tutto
Epic. Inspirational. Mind blowing. The story of a reckless idiot transforming into a visionary leader. Becoming Steve Jobs tells the story of Steve Jobs from the perspective of a close friend. It's a story of finding hope after getting fired from his own company. A story of restoring personal relati Leggi tutto
I devoured this book in two days after I found it one and a half weeks early (before its on sale date) at my local book store! It was a very unique read. It covered a timeline of Steve Job's professional career, much like his autobiography did, but the interviews with those who were closest to him s Leggi tutto
There's been a lot of hoopla about this biography in the press, and I must say I agree with most of it. I was working on an assignment project on the history of computing, so I did quiet an intense study about Apple and Steve Jobs. It is far superior to Walter Isaacson's Steve Jobs and in my opinion s Leggi tutto
The author explains the part of Steve that is not known to the public , most of it is not known well to the author himself. He is one of the few reporters who were close to him and cause of this it allowed him to understand Steve as a person rather than the tech genius the world sees him to be. It i Leggi tutto
A Winner Simply spectacular in so many ways. This was not only a biography of the great man but a history lesson of computing at the end of the 20th century until today. It was not over flattering but boldly honest as far as I could imagine. I highly recommend.
This biography has a more positive attitude to Jobs than the one by Walter Isaacson. The author - at times - strained his efforts to turn Jobs into a more "nice" guy (even though I don't believe that business leaders necessarily need to be nice to be supremely successful.) The book basically tells t Leggi tutto
