The Steve Jobs biography.


Walter Isaacson’s definitive biography of Apple co-founder Steve Jobs is out Monday.

All week long, excerpts have been leaking out, with little snippets of the late Apple CEO’s reported thoughts on alternative medicine, Android, Bill Gates, being strategically mean to people, Obama, what apps Obama’s staffers had on their iPads, cancer, teachers’ unions and labor rights, Issey Miyake turtlenecks, the adoptive parents he loved and rebelled against, and the biological parents who gave him up for adoption (whom he is said to have referred to as “sperm and egg donors”).

The first real review, by Janet Maslin in the New York Times, is out today.

You can read all 630 pages of the book for yourself soon. [Amazon].
