Advance praise for I, Steve: Steve Jobs in His Own Words , edited by George Beahm: "It is a sad day, and one to remember and celebrate the life of one of the most insightful, brilliant, successful--and, yes--quotable geniuses in tech history." —Jason O. Gilbert, Huffington Post "Steve Jobs, whose resume twice cites 'the vision thing,' has given us some truly memorable quotes." —FoxNews.com "The book, which was edited by George Beahm, contains Jobs' thoughts about product design, his $1 annual salary and Apple's popular 'Think, Different' ad campaign. The format, arranged alphabetically by topic, is as simple as the book's premise." -Elizabeth Woyke, Forbes magazine "A short work to be dipped into for nuggets of business (or law firm) wisdom..." —Michael Roach, Law Technology News "A 160-page collection of quotes from the most iconic product pitchman since P.T. Barnum." —Ben Popper, The New York Observer BetaBeat blog "A much better Jobs product is coming soon. It'll entertain you for hours, and no — it is not a Jobs-branded iPad or anything similarly high-tech. It is, friends, an old-fashioned book!" —Hillary Reinsberg, Mogulite "Inspirational reading pleasure." —Courtney Boyd Myers, The Next Web "Steve Jobs, who brought the world the iPhone, the iPad, the iPod and so much more, has left a rich history, both of technological innovations and of thoughts about what people want from them. Perhaps it's inevitable that a book about him would be titled I, Steve." —Ned Potter, ABCNews.com Praise for Steve Jobs: "Rarely has a major company and industry been so dominated by a single individual, and so successful. His influence went far beyond the iconic personal computers that were Apple's principal product for its first 20 years. In the last decade, Apple has redefined the music business through the iPod, the cellphone business through the iPhone and the entertainment and media world through the iPad. Again and again, Mr. Jobs gambled that he knew what the customer would want, and again and again he was right." — New York Times "CEO of the decade." — Fortune magazine "The world's best-performing CEO." — Harvard Business Review "Person of the Decade." — Wall Street Journal, ADVANCE PRAISE FOR I, STEVE: STEVE JOBS IN HIS OWN WORDS , EDITED BY GEORGE BEAHM : "A book consisting entirely of quotes from Apple co-founder Steve Jobs is being sped to market as much as a month ahead of schedule to meet demand following Jobs' Oct. 5 passing. The accelerated schedule mirrors that of other, higher-profile Jobs books also in the works, such as Jobs' official biography by journalist Walter Isaacson....[I, Steve], which was edited by George Beahm, contains Jobs'' thoughts about product design, his $1 annual salary and Apple''s popular ''Think, Different'' ad campaign. The format, arranged alphabetically by topic, is as simple as the book''s premise." —Elizabeth Woyke, Forbes "It''s the same treatment given such luminaries as Winston Churchill, Abraham Lincoln and Christopher Hitchens and offers Jobs''s views on life, death, technology and design, among other topics." —Timothy R. Smith, The Washington Post "A new book revealing many of Steve Jobs'' most illuminating quotes..." —Lance Whitney, CNET "It is a sad day, and one to remember and celebrate the life of one of the most insightful, brilliant, successful--and, yes--quotable geniuses in tech history." —Jason O. Gilbert, The Huffington Post "Steve Jobs, whose resume twice cites ''the vision thing,'' has given us some truly memorable quotes." — FoxNews.com "Jobs had an uncanny ability to see what could exist in technology and then create a product that was not only functional and beautiful, but easily accessible for the masses...There is such a strong desire to understand more about Apple's creative genius that one book, I, Steve: Steve Jobs In His Own Words is being rushed to appear this month instead of waiting until its originally scheduled March publication date." —Curt Finch, CIO.com "The kind of book that you read, think about, and then pass on to a friend or colleague...I learned a lot about Jobs' thinking process." —Allen Stern, CenterNetworks "A short work to be dipped into for nuggets of business (or law firm) wisdom..." —Michael Roach, Law Technology News "A 160-page collection of quotes from the most iconic product pitchman since P.T.

It is, friends, an old-fashioned book!" —Hillary Reinsberg, Mogulite "Inspirational reading pleasure." —Courtney Boyd Myers, The Next Web "The kind of book that you read, think about, and then pass on to a friend or colleague...I learned a lot about Jobs' thinking process." —Allen Stern, CenterNetworks "A short work to be dipped into for nuggets of business (or law firm) wisdom..." —Michael Roach, Law Technology News "Steve Jobs, who brought the world the iPhone, the iPad, the iPod and so much more, has left a rich history, both of technological innovations and of thoughts about what people want from them. Perhaps it's inevitable that a book about him would be titled I, Steve." —Ned Potter, ABCNews.com Praise for Other Titles in Agate B2's New York Times Best-Selling Series, IN THEIR OWN WORDS : "[ Impatient Optimist ] is like eating salted peanuts: Once you start reading, it's hard to stop." – Anne Fisher, CNN Money "[ Boy Billionaire ] reveals the intimate thoughts and beliefs of the man who has arguably created one of the world's largest companies…and who is also one of the world's greatest social connectors." - Strategy Driven Praise for Steve Jobs : "Rarely has a major company and industry been so dominated by a single individual, and so successful. His influence went far beyond the iconic personal computers that were Apple's principal product for its first 20 years. In the last decade, Apple has redefined the music business through the iPod, the cellphone business through the iPhone and the entertainment and media world through the iPad. Again and again, Mr. Jobs gambled that he knew what the customer would want, and again and again he was right." — The New York Times "CEO of the decade." — Fortune magazine "The world's best-performing CEO." — Harvard Business Review "Person of the Decade." — The Wall Street Journal
