Visionär? Genie? Getriebener? Halb Genie, halb Wahnsinniger, Guru, Choleriker und Kontrollfreak - das ist das vorherrschende Bild, das sich die Welt von Steve Jobs gemacht hat. Jobs selbst hat zu Lebzeiten dieses Image gern gepflegt, und seine Biografen sind ihm bereitwillig gefolgt. Vier Jahre nach seinem Tod ist es nun an der Zeit, ein klareres Bild des Apple-Gründers zu zeichnen. Auf Grundlage zahlreicher Gespräche mit Jobs selbst sowie mit engsten Vertrauten und Weggefährten wie Tim Cook oder Bill Gates ist ein ebenso differenziertes wie leidenschaftliches Porträt entstanden, das der Frage nachgeht, wie aus einem ungestümen, jungen Gründer die wichtigste Unternehmerpersönlichkeit unserer Zeit reifen konnte.
