Description: From a childhood in Pretoria to the boardrooms of Silicon Valley, this incisive biography traces the audacious career of one of the twenty-first century's most polarizing entrepreneurs. Following Elon Musk through the founding of Zip2, the high-stakes launches of SpaceX, the electric revolution at Tesla, and ambitious ventures into solar power, tunneling, and brain-computer interfaces, it offers a clear-eyed look at the businesses that reshaped entire industries. The book also examines his turbulent acquisition of Twitter and the management philosophy—equal parts visionary and volatile—that drives his empire. A thoughtful portrait of ambition, contradiction, and the outsized influence of a single restless mind.
