Good account of the Pixar company and long and fairly tortured journey. I think the Walter Isaacson Jobs book's chapters on Pixar were better, but they didn't cover as much of the story. There were a lot of parts of this which were new to me -- the NYIT, CalArts, etc. parts, and the massive cram-down. I'd definitely like to visit a Pixar Image Computer at CHM someday, and I remember running RenderMan to do some test images a long time ago (on Macs).

Overall, mostly a straightforward accounting of the company. Doesn't provide a lot of insight into novel creative process or personality, so it's more for people curious about Pixar itself, not as much lessons applicable outside. Creativity, Inc. (written by one of the founders of Pixar) is probably more worthwhile generally. The Jobs book is better for what it covered. ( )

Straightforward history of Pixar upto it's acquisition by Disney. A quick read, mostly focused in the corporate events on the company's development. Very little insight as to what makes the company unique and great, aside from hiring the best and keeping them together come what may, focused on a long term broad goal. ( )

I'm a fan of the Pixar movies and I've read at least there books about it's background. The book provides the perspective of Disney and Steve Jobs as well those who worked at Pixar. The seminal role of the University of Utah is well presented. I briefly knew some people who had trained in computer graphics there and I presented at an early Siggraf meeting. My life has gone an entirely different direction. Steve Jobs had always been a fantasy for me. ( )

Who doesn't love Pixar? There are plenty of technical how-it's-made videos on YouTube so it's fun to get a peek behind the business of our fave animation house. Ever wonder why a bugs life and antz came out at the same time? This is your book. ( )

[A] highly readable company history.
 
[T]he chapters on Pixar's early days are worth every penny of the book's price.

[An] excellent, readable account of Pixar's early years.

Mr. Price, in addition to offering unprecedented detail about the notoriously press-shy company's workings, tells a story that abounds with lessons for business people and creative artists alike.

[A]n eye-opening account that pulls back the curtain to reveal the process of evolution, the labor of love, and all the business dealings behind the magic of 3-D animation.
