Steve Jobs biography: iLeadership for a new generation available with Ziarul Financiar

Between June 15 and 21, the Financial Newspaper will be available together with a book entitled STEVE JOBS: iLeadership for a new generation which should be the biography of Steve Jobs in the view of a former senior VP of Apple. As far as I'm concerned, the biography is not authorized by Steve Jobs and all the stories are made from the perspective of Jay Elliott, who spent a lot of time with the CEO of Apple. On Amazon.com, the book costs $18, Ziarul Financiar offers it for 16 lei, so if you are interested, I say it is worth the purchase.

I, for one, will look for it at the newsstands, but I don't know how lucky I will be, I know that some editions of ZF sell quickly if they have an interesting book. If you are interested in learning more about the life of Steve Jobs, I recommend you to read the book, the price is reasonable and you will probably find out some things you didn't know.

The book maintains the magic around the charismatic head of Apple, but does not forget to review the failures recorded over time by the Apple leader, such as the construction of his own factory for assembling computers - which had some exorbitant costs - or the desire to build from scratch own hard disk etc.

Fanatical admirers of the Apple brand and of Steve Jobs will be fascinated and will explain, perhaps, their unconditional love for the iProducts and iServices of the American company. Those who do not want to hear about the iPhone, iPad and Mac will also find "ammunition" for the endless discussions about which product is better in the IT world: that of Apple, Google or Microsoft.

Between June 15 and 21, ZF will be available at newsstands together with the book "Steve Jobs - iLeadership for a new generation" at the price of 15,9 lei. Beyond some spicy details from the life of an eccentric and authoritarian leader (Elliot reports, from for example, how Jobs drove his Mercedes with the music playing so loud that he had to shout to get along with it; or that in the years before the launch of the iPhone "phenomenon" he sometimes studied his hand in fascination during Apple's board meetings), the book it is for business people the precious diary of a man who stayed close to Apple's leader for years.
