Fortune and TIME to release commemorative issues on Steve Jobs


Fortune and TIME to release commemorative issues on Steve Jobs

In the wake of Steve Jobs’ death last week, we have seen a multitude of essays and tributes published about the Apple co-founder. Now, Fortune Magazine and TIME Magazine are planning to release a special commemorative edition of their respective publications in honour of Jobs, according to a MacNN report.

Fortune’s book is titled “The Legacy of Steve Jobs” and TIME’s “Steve Jobs: The Genius Who Changed Our World”. Available from Amazon and Barnes & Noble, the special issues will cost $19.95 each and be released on November 15 this year. The books will include past articles and profiles about Steve Jobs and Apple published by both magazines and will be a celebration of his life and achievements. They’ll also include new articles and never-before-seen photographs of the late Apple co-founder.

Admirers and fans of Steve Jobs can also look forward to his authorised biography, penned by Walter Isaacson, and currently available for pre-order on Amazon. Originally slated to be released on November 21, the book’s release date was brought forward to October 24 after pre-orders jumped by 41,800% after the passing of the Apple chief. It may also soon be released in the form of a movie by Sony Pictures, with the studio having acquired the rights to do so for a hefty sum.
