Thumbs up iCon Steve Jobs - The greatest second act in the history of business

CEans,

Just finished reading this wonderful book on the man behind iMac, iPod and the iPhone - Steve Jobs. Posting my brief review of the book by Jeffery S Young and William L Simon.

The book has three parts -
  • Part I : Flowering and Withering
  • Part II: New Beginnings
  • Part III: Defining the Future
The authors tell us about the story of Steve Jobs. The story of how Apple was started by two Steves (Jobs & Wozniak ) is amazing! You will also enjoy reading how Steve Jobs got fired from Apple by Scully & how he re-entered Apple.

There are lots of things we can learn from Steve Jobs. Afterall, he is the man who has changed the world we live in.

The book is a must read for all wannabe entrepreneurs & others as well.
