    “For someone who spent their tech career in Silicon Valley, this book is full of interesting anecdotes and behind-the-scenes insight on how Apple has managed to churn out mostly amazing user experiences and devices over the course of decades. As the book explains quite possibly the most innovative thing Jobs ever did was instill the company’s “never ship junk” culture. The book is especially timely given the CEO transition recently announced. Highly recommended (for those in the right cohort)!”
