In an interview about his recent biography Steve Jobs, author Walter Isaacson had this to say about the writing experience,

[Steve Jobs] gave me an enormous amount of material, and the book kind of just wrote itself.

Yes, it appears to have. It’s all too easy to tell that this book wrote itself. Books, it appears, are not very good authors, probably because they don’t think for themselves.

Great short review of Isaacson’s Steve Jobs. I’m still to read the biography, but I’m glad I’ll have this review in the back of my mind when I eventually do get ‘round to reading it.
