This book chronicles the roller-coaster ride of Steve Jobs from the despair of repeated failures to the triumph of iPod and Toy Story and his monumental clash with Disney. Lightning never strikes twice, but Steve Jobs has, transforming modern culture first with the Macintosh and more recently with the iPod. He has dazzled and delighted audiences with his Pixar movies. And he has bedeviled, destroyed, and demoralized hundreds of people along the way. Ten years after the leading maverick of the computer age, the king of digital cool, crashed from the height of Apple's meteoric rise, Steve Jobs rose from ashes in a Machiavellian coup that only he could have orchestrated, and has now become more famous than ever.
