In this episode, Omar breaks down the key takeaways from this incredible (and incredibly long) book.It’s a page-turner, and good thing — there are quite a few pages to turn. This fascinating biography paints a narrative of struggle and innovation, of idiosyncrasy and vision, of controversy and perseverance.

This is no work of flattery, but an honest, revealing exploration of what made Jobs so…Jobs.Innovators don’t happen by accident. They build and define themselves as they create and grow their businesses. Jobs may reign as the greatest example of that spirit of his generation.
