Description
When Silicon Valley was searching for a new idol after Steve Jobs, they found it in the quirky Elon Musk. In his investigative biography, reporter Ashlee Vance provides a balanced view of the life of the entrepreneurial titan. As the only journalist, he spent dozens of hours with Musk himself, his colleagues, friends, and even opponents and critics, to create a breathtaking portrait of an extraordinary man on his journey toward his visions. The book assembles a mosaic of fragments about Musk's childhood in Pretoria, South Africa, his first earned millions, and a group of oddballs from PayPal, ultimately highlighting two main themes: electric cars and space travel. Of course, it also addresses the less positive moments from Musk's personal and professional life. Several divorces, averting a company bankruptcy just hours before the official announcement, and a somewhat controversial relationship with employees... Duration: 12 hours 49 minutes
