Although this book is quite thick, it's a quick read. My review isn't so much about the book or the style it's written in, etc. It's about what I learned from it.

Jobs' management style was not the best, but he did surround himself by the best people–A players–and didn't suffer fools as it were. He had no room for mediocrity. If someone failed at his job, he was fired. I admire that he was able to make decisions without shifting blame or asking a committee. He often took credit for other people's work, but that often happens in the workplace anyway.
