I have to say, my expectations were mixed, with trepidation based on the ill-conceived video trailer but balanced by my anticipation of a story well told by a seasoned writer. As I’m sure the vast majority of us are, I am a big fan of Sir Jony Ive and his work and want his story to be treated just-so.
If you don’t already have this book in hand, take a read through the excerpt. Compelling story with lots of little details and some terrific images. The only thing I’d argue with is the author’s premise. Unsung hero, certainly. But “The Genius” takes away from the hard work done by so many other people, not to mention Steve Jobs. That quibble aside, there’s plenty to enjoy here.
