September 15, 2023 Elon Musk by Walter Isaacson
From the author of Steve Jobs
and other bestselling biographies, this is the astonishingly intimate
story of the most fascinating and controversial innovator of our era—a
rule-breaking visionary who helped to lead the world into the era of
electric vehicles, private space exploration, and artificial
intelligence. Oh, and took over Twitter.
When Elon
Musk was a kid in South Africa, he was regularly beaten by bullies. One
day a group pushed him down some concrete steps and kicked him until his
face was a swollen ball of flesh. He was in the hospital for a week.
But the physical scars were minor compared to the emotional ones
inflicted by his father, an engineer, rogue, and charismatic fantasist.

His
father’s impact on his psyche would linger. He developed into a tough
yet vulnerable man-child, prone to abrupt Jekyll-and-Hyde mood swings,
with an exceedingly high tolerance for risk, a craving for drama, an
epic sense of mission, and a maniacal intensity that was callous and at
times destructive.

At the beginning of 2022—after a year marked
by SpaceX launching thirty-one rockets into orbit, Tesla selling a
million cars, and him becoming the richest man on earth—Musk spoke
ruefully about his compulsion to stir up dramas. “I need to shift my
mindset away from being in crisis mode, which it has been for about
fourteen years now, or arguably most of my life,” he said.

It
was a wistful comment, not a New Year’s resolution. Even as he said it,
he was secretly buying up shares of Twitter, the world’s ultimate
playground. Over the years, whenever he was in a dark place, his mind
went back to being bullied on the playground. Now he had the chance to
own the playground.

For two years, Isaacson shadowed Musk,
attended his meetings, walked his factories with him, and spent hours
interviewing him, his family, friends, coworkers, and adversaries. The
result is the revealing inside story, filled with amazing tales of
triumphs and turmoil, that addresses the question: are the demons that
drive Musk also what it takes to drive innovation and progress?
