New book, shipping May 19, from author Geoffrey Cain:
For twelve years, from 1985 to 1997, Jobs wandered the business
wilderness with his new venture, NeXT. It was a period of spectacular
failures, near-bankruptcy, and brutal humiliation. But out of this
crucible of defeat emerged the visionary leader who would go on to
create the iPod, iPhone, and iPad, transforming Apple into the most
valuable company on earth.
Drawing on previously unpublished materials and new interviews with
the key players, Geoffrey Cain reveals the untold story of Steve
JobsrCOs rCLlost decaderCYrCerCorCethe formative years that shaped the icon we thought we knew.
Afterword by Ed Catmull, who was obviously intimately familiar with
Jobs in that era. And via CainrCOs post on LinkedIn[1] announcing the
book, the foreword is by NeXT cofounder DanrCOl Lewin.
