Seriously though, I'm usually not this negative, especially in this blog, but I guess I spiced things up with this post. The book in question was meant to explain away Jobs' bad behavior, but to do so, it also cataloged it extensively. Given that he is often referred to in both the popular and technical media (including this very book) as a business and technical genius, I was surprised to see little support for either notion here. The picture I was left with was someone who is successful despite himself, through sheer dumb luck. Stop it, I’m blushing.
