This inspiring book highlights what Steve Jobs realised were the most significant lessons he had learned in his personal and professional life. In 2005 Steve Jobs gave his first and only 'commencement address' - a lecture given to the graduating class at Standford University in the US, an audience of 23,000 students. This lecture was to be the most famous such address and resulted in 26 million viewers once it hit the web. This lecture was an opportunity for Jobs to pause and reflect, to provide a personal and professional summation of his remarkable life. Steve Jobs Life By Design, is based on this lecture, with the author, George Beahm connecting the dots and providing the examples, context and perspective from Jobs' life to expand on each lesson.
