\u201cAn adulating biography\u00a0of Apple\u2019s left-brained\u00a0wunderkind, whose work\u00a0continues to revolutionize\u00a0modern technology.\u201d\u00a0\u2014<\/b>Kirkus Reviews<\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

In 1997, Steve Jobs discovered a scruffy British\u00a0designer toiling away at Apple\u2019s headquarters,\u00a0surrounded by hundreds of sketches and\u00a0prototypes. Jony Ive\u2019s collaboration with Jobs\u00a0would produce some of the world\u2019s most iconic\u00a0technology products, including the iMac, iPod,\u00a0iPad, and iPhone. Ive\u2019s work helped reverse Apple\u2019s\u00a0long decline, overturned entire industries,\u00a0and created a huge global fan base. Yet little is\u00a0known about the shy, soft-spoken whiz whom\u00a0Jobs referred to as his \u201cspiritual partner.\u201d<\/p>\n

Leander Kahney offers a detailed portrait of\u00a0the English art school student with dyslexia\u00a0who became the most acclaimed tech designer\u00a0of his generation. Drawing on interviews with\u00a0Ive\u2019s former colleagues and Apple insiders,\u00a0Kahney \u201ctakes us inside the creation of these\u00a0memorable objects.\u201d (The Wall Street Journal<\/i>)<\/p>\nBuy the Book<\/a>\n
