A section of the book overview says:
Although Jobs cooperated with this book, he asked for no control over what was written nor even the right to read it before it was published. He put nothing off limits and instead encouraged the people he knew to speak honestly even foes, former girlfriends, and colleagues he had once fired or infuriated. "I've done a lot of things I'm not proud of, such as getting my girlfriend pregnant when I was 23 and the way I handled that," he said. "But I don't have any skeletons in my closet that can't be allowed out."
The cover of the book, featuring just an image and a few words in Helvetica, looks just like an Apple product. Have a look at it yourself:
publisher, Bluewater Productions, has said it is rushing out a special edition e-book of its forthcoming comic book on Jobs.
