Summary: Great Representation of a Brilliant and Quixotic Pioneer
Comment: I read this work in the late 1980s, and am still impressed with it to this day. It is one of the few completely fair and complete business biographies ever written.
Young does a landmark job digging into Jobs' formative years growing up as an adopted son of a machinist in pre-Silicon Valley, describes his years at Reed and India in more depth than any other author, perfectly covers his mercurial personality in both personal and professional relationships, and accurately chronicles his rise and fall in the labyrinth of corporate America.
This is the best of the Jobs and Apple books, and is far superior to The Return of Steve Jobs. Highly recommended to those interested in both the personal and professional life of one of America's great risk takers.

Summary: do you want a chance to change the world?
Comment: this is an absorbing, riveting true account of how an incredible visionary inspired and cajoled both talented and ordinary people to achieve things they could never dream of. I read this shortly after Jobs was ousted from Apple in the 80s and to witness how he came back to save Apple from oblivion a decade later is one of the great comeback stories of our time.
the title the journey is the reward is very zen and very much Steve Jobs in his early days ... the acid-dropping, bare-footed carrot-vegetarian who was at once arrogant and selfish yet brilliantly daring and inventive.
another interesting read is John Sculley's book Odyssey. Sculley, of course was Jobs' hand-picked CEO for Apple and the man who later ousted Jobs from Apple ... you'll see that inspite of Sculley's betrayal, he maintains in his writing a sense of awe ... that he was a convert in the Jobs' mystique ... he never was the same after Jobs' challenge "do you want to sell sugared water for the rest of your life? or do you want a chance to change the world?"
