Hey, I just finished reading a great book. It's about Steve Jobs.
Really? But there are so many books about him now. What makes the one you read so special?
Well, the one I read is by Walter Isaacson. It's different from the others, because Steve Jobs himself asked Isaacson to write it.
Uhm, were they friends or something?
Well, they knew each other well because Isaacson used to work for Time magazine in the 1980s. And he wrote about Apple products. But it was mostly a business relationship I think.
So, what's the book about?
Oh, his entire life. There's a lot of personal information about Steve Jobs, because so many people, including his wife, kids and closest coworkers, agreed to be interviewed only for this particular book.
It sounds interesting. Did you learn anything that really surprised you?
I always knew he was a tough person, but I was amazed at how sensitive he was. He actually cries a lot in the book.
Really? Wow! I should definitely take a look.
