Steve Jobs, the cofounder, chairman, and chief executive officer of Apple Inc., could answer to any of these descriptions. He was the most unlikely of visionaries. No one ever could have imagined that the tiny terror of third grade, who was later a college dropout and was even fired from the company he cofounded, would ultimately turn his many "failures" into spectacular successes. Who was Steve Jobs, and who and what influenced and had an impact on him throughout his extraordinary and complex life? Read about his journey from grade school to Reed College, from India to Atari, from Apple to NeXT to Pixar and his subsequent return to Apple. Just like Jobs himself, this biography is fascinating, inspiring, and unforgettable. Book jacket.
