Released just this morning, Jony Ive by Leander Kahney (editor of the Cult of Mac blog) explores the meteoric rise of Apple's famous product designer, Sir Ive himself. We're really looking forward to reading this.

While this is not a book based on direct conversations with its subject in the way that Walter Isaacson's biography of Steve Jobs was, it does cover some of the earlier events in Jony's life that led to him becoming the genius designer we know and love today. His ideas have literally changed the world, so if this book is even a fraction as good, it's sure to be a hit.

Jony Ive is available from Amazon in both hardcover ($17) and Kindle ($12) formats, as well as from the iBooks Store ($12).
