In the spirit of Steve Jobs and Moneyball, this book offers an illuminating and authorized look at the extraordinary life of one of Silicon Valley’s most ambitious entrepreneurs—a real-life Tony Stark. It highlights the technology and vision of Elon Musk, the innovator behind SpaceX, Tesla, and SolarCity, who famously sold PayPal for $1.5 billion. The author captures the full arc of Musk’s life, from his tumultuous upbringing in South Africa to his dramatic innovations and entrepreneurial ventures in the U.S. The narrative explores a pressing question of our time: can America, the nation of inventors, still compete in an era of fierce global competition? The author argues that Musk is a unique figure in American business history, embodying a blend of legendary inventors and industrialists like Thomas Edison and Steve Jobs. Musk has committed his energies and vast fortune to creating a future that mirrors the visions of science-fiction's golden age. This thorough and insightful examination of Musk’s life reveals the rapidly changing technology industry through the lens of one of its most powerful and influential figures.
