Hundreds of millions of people use Apple products every day; several thousand work on Apple's campus in Cupertino, California; but only a handful sit at the drawing board. Creative Selection recounts the life of one of the few who worked behind the scenes, a highly-respected software engineer who worked in the final years of the Steve Jobs era―the Golden Age of Apple.
Hundreds of millions of people use Apple products every day; several thousand work on Apple's campus in Cupertino, California; but only a handful sit at the drawing board. Creative Selection recounts the life of one of the few who worked behind the scenes, a highly-respected software engineer who worked in the final years of the Steve Jobs era―the Golden Age of Apple.
Ken Kocienda offers an inside look at Apple’s creative process. For fifteen years, he was on the ground floor of the company as a specialist, directly responsible for experimenting with novel user interface concepts and writing powerful, easy-to-use software for products including the iPhone, the iPad, and the Safari web browser. His stories explain the symbiotic relationship between software and product development for those who have never dreamed of programming a computer, and reveal what it was like to work on the cutting edge of technology at one of the world's most admired companies.
Kocienda shares moments of struggle and success, crisis and collaboration, illuminating each with lessons learned over his Apple career. He introduces the essential elements of innovation―inspiration, collaboration, craft, diligence, decisiveness, taste, and empathy―and uses these as a lens through which to understand productive work culture.
An insider's tale of creativity and innovation at Apple, Creative Selection shows readers how a small group of people developed an evolutionary design model, and how they used this methodology to make groundbreaking and intuitive software which countless millions use every day.

很难得的一线的详尽的软件开发的背后的故事了。 查了查书里的各个名字，大部分都在 Scott 离职以后走了。写代码再猛，也要考虑时代的进程嘿。

虽然有点像 Jobs 的拜物教，但是作为纯工程出身的作者一个人要把 设计/算法/工程 三块集合在一起，还是很不容易的。开发了 Safari，iPhone keyboard 和 iPad keyboard，作者也算是把 Apple 的 R&D into application 实践到了极致

two takeaways: hard work matters in creative processes; tastes reduces the number of A/B tests

这哥们讲故事能力一流啊。书里很多关于乔布斯时代软件产品开发的细节，挺羡慕他们那种小团队的合作方式。
