Steve Jobs died on October 5, 2011, just shy of one year ago. You’re likely already reading many other articles about his life, and about his absence from Apple. There is a definite overload of information online about Steve Jobs and Apple, plus the number of books has also dramatically increased in the last year. I have more books related to Steve Jobs and Apple than on any other computer history related subjects. Here are the top Steve Jobs / Apple books and videos that I own and recommend. Many of the books I own in audio form, and I have listened to more than once.

The anniversary of Steve Jobs’ death reminds us of what a remarkable and unique man he was. He was absolutely foundational in the creation and rebirth of a modern and great company. There is so much to celebrate and to learn about both.
