Steve Wozniak: “Steve Jobs and I in 1974, with the Blue Box I had designed”.
Will the Apple craze never end? The now legendary company never stops talking about itself, its products and, above all, its history. After the famous biography of Apple founder Steve Jobs, written by Walter Isaacson, iWoz, the autobiography of co-founder Steve Wozniak, is still a hot topic. To coincide with the release of the film iJobs, Globe presents a new edition ofiWoz, the cult book by Steve Wozniak, the engineer who invented the Apple I and II.
iPhone, iMac, iPad, iPhone … iWoz? This biography is the missing piece in the giant jigsaw puzzle that is the history of the global company. Another look at Apple’s crazy gamble, but also at the company’s meteoric evolution, punctuated by Steve Wozniak’s personal thoughts describing his values, his sense of ethics and his experiences alongside Jobs. Jobs, who seems to have lurked in the shadow of the other Steve for a long time, is nonetheless a fascinating figure. Gifted, Steve Wozniak taught himself how to operate an oscilloscope at the age of 4 and a resistor at 7, before building his first amateur radio kit at the age of 11. The son of an engineer, Wozniak never stopped pushing the boundaries of computer science, which led him to find his true soulmate in Steve Jobs, another programming nut. A story rewritten for two, in which Steve makes a point of stressing that he was the thinker and designer of the Apple I and Apple II, at the root of the firm’s success.
