Steve Jobs Biography Hits Shelves
The highly-anticipated biography "Steve Jobs" hit shelves Monday, after a pre-release on Apple's iBooks online store and Amazon's Kindle Sunday evening.
The biography, written by Walter Isaacson, is already ranked as the current best-selling book on Amazon.com.
The release date was originally planned for November 21, but was moved up after Jobs died from pancreatic cancer on October 5.
The 630-page book is a collection of stories and information that Isaacson collected during a series of over 40 interviews with Jobs, the last of which was completed just weeks before Jobs passed away.
Isaacson is a seasoned biographist, having written on Benjamin Franklin and Albert Einstein among others.
Gaining access to Steve Jobs was no easy task, as the Apple founder was well-known for maintaining a tight ring of secrecy around his company, products, and personal life.
Sony Pictures has acquired the rights to make a major feature film out of the biography, according to reports.
