FROM THE AUTHOR OF THE BESTSELLING BIOGRAPHIES OF BENJAMIN FRANKLIN AND ALBERT EINSTEIN, THIS IS THE EXCLUSIVE BIOGRAPHY OF STEVE JOBS.

Based on more than forty interviews with Jobs conducted over two years?as well as interviews with more than a hundred family members, friends, adversaries, competitors, and colleagues?Walter Isaacson has written a riveting story of the roller-coaster life and searingly intense personality of a creative entrepreneur whose passion for perfection and ferocious drive revolutionized six industries: personal computers, animated movies, music, phones, tablet computing, and digital publishing.

At a time when America is seeking ways to sustain its innovative edge, and when societies around the world are trying to build digital-age economies, Jobs stands as the ultimate icon of inventiveness and applied imagination. He knew that the best way to create value in the twenty-first century was to connect creativity with technology. He built a company where leaps of the imagination were combined with remarkable feats of engineering.  

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.

Driven by demons, Jobs could drive those around him to fury and despair. But his personality and products were interrelated, just as Apple?s hardware and software tended to be, as if part of an integrated system. His tale is instructive and cautionary, filled with lessons about innovation, character, leadership, and values.

Cavalry officer Slavomir Rawicz was captured by the Red Army in 1939 during the German-Soviet partition of Poland and was sent to the Siberian Gulag along with other captive Poles, Finns, Ukranians, Czechs, Greeks, and even a few English, French, and American unfortunates who had been caught up in the fighting. A year later, he and six comrades from various countries escaped from a labor camp in Yakutsk and made their way, on foot, thousands of miles south to British India, where Rawicz reenlisted in the Polish army and fought against the Germans. The Long Walk recounts that adventure, which is surely one of the most curious treks in history.

When I first decide to write a book about Steve Jobs, the first thing I thought was; what can I say about Steve that is not written yet. Everyone knows the answer: Nothing.
Afterwards an idea become to my mind, why don?t just show his life in photographs, the idea was a bit risky, but is also something different to an usually biography.
After some months doing some research I found nearly 4000 different photographs, so I just decide to choose 300 that really are part of his life essence. I am sure that most of the pictures I show you today you can find it in internet, but this book in not about photographs, is about the history that lay behind them.

Enjoy your reading.


Tras unos meses de investigación encontré cerca de cuatro mil fotos diferentes de Steve Jobs y sus productos. Decidí elegir unas pocas pero que sean representativas de su vida, y que tuviesen una historia que contar. Al fin y al cabo no es un libro de fotografías sino un libro sobre la vida de una persona.

Así es como comienza un libro que te tendrá atrapado desde la primera a la última página y que cuando le acabes estarás deseando mas porque seguro que se te habrá hecho corto debido a su fácil y rápida lectura...
