What happens when the President of the United States governs one Tweet at a time? When the elected leader of the free world may not have a firm grasp on the names of government agencies, much less an understanding of their intricate inner-workings? In the days following the 2016 inauguration, government personnel searched for answers that didn’t exist, while White House staff scoured halls for employees who would never be appointed.

Interesting, informative but decidedly biased view
Revisado: 10-09-18
This book was surprisingly interesting and informative. However it has a markedly liberal point of view. The author actually called Michael Brown, of Ferguson Missouri infamy, (and I'm paraphrasing because I don't recall the exact quote) a defenseless teen. This even after both the state and federal prosecutors found the officer did nothing wrong.
Most of the cited interviews were of Obama administration officials.
Because of the slanted point of view, the importance and message of this book is diminished.

Based on more than 40 interviews with Jobs conducted over two years—as well as interviews with more than a hundred family members, friends, adversaries, competitors, and colleagues—Walter Isaacson has written a riveting story of the roller-coaster life and searingly intense personality of a creative entrepreneur whose passion for perfection and ferocious drive revolutionized six industries: personal computers, animated movies, music, phones, tablet computing, and digital publishing.

Worth the read (listen)

Where does Steve Jobs rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?
This is one of the better audiobooks I've listened to.
What about Dylan Baker’s performance did you like?
Dylan Baker was fabulous. He consistently captured the flavor of Isaacson's words and his meaning with his inflection and reading style.
Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
YES!!
