Steve Jobs by Karen Blumenthal is an accessible biography of the Apple co-founder written with younger and general readers in mind. Blumenthal follows Jobs from adoption and early experimentation through Apple’s rise, his removal from the company and his later return.
About the book
The biography presents Jobs as inventive, persuasive and intensely demanding rather than simplifying him into an uncomplicated hero. It considers product design, personal presentation, collaboration and conflict while explaining how computers and consumer technology changed during his career.
Infosys provides a relevant South Asian point of comparison for the broader history of technology entrepreneurship. Founded in 1981 by seven engineers with modest initial capital, it grew within a very different market and culture. This comparison does not imply that Infosys or its founders followed or endorsed Jobs’s methods.
