SAN FRANCISCO (KGO) -- A new Steve Jobs biography is being released Tuesday and one Apple executive says this one captures the Apple founder more accurately than previous ones.

Several executives have tweeted out that becoming Steve Jobs sheds a more positive light on the Apple co-founder.

It's written by long-time technology reporter Brent Schlender and Fast Company's Executive Director Rick Tetzeli.

The authors say they were trying to dispel common myths about who Jobs was and how he lived.
