The most awaited book of 2011 is about to be made available to the public. Steve Jobs gave permission to TIME writer Walter Isaacson to write an official biography. The most secretive CEO ever wanted to provide a memoir to his family and thus finally played a role in a book written about him.
Early media reports seem to suggest that the book contains a lot of interesting tidbits. Jobs had huge issues with Android and wanted to “destroy” it. His spat with Bill Gates over his “lack of imagination” and the bad products that Microsoft have made will also be documented. One rumor that will make Apple fans very happy is a rumoured Apple TV project that the late Apple founder worked on.
I think the book could become mandatory reading for all MBA students. Early media reports seem to be indicating that Steve Jobs by Walter Isaacson will become a best seller. Will you buy a copy?
