Product details

By Walter Isaacson, author of the multi-million bestseller about Steve Jobs: the ultimate, cutting-edge biography of Elon Musk, the most fascinating and controversial innovator of our timeToday, Elon Musk is considered a visionary who defies all rules and who has led our world into the age of electric mobility, private space travel and artificial intelligence. Yet his beginnings were far more humble. Regularly beaten up by teenage bullies in the playgrounds of South Africa as a child, Musk also had to stand up to his violent father at home and thus learned early on to rely solely on himself. A lesson that, in the course of his life, made him one of the most daring entrepreneurs of our time, equipped with extremely high risk tolerance and an almost manic intensity. But all the successes could not hide the shadows of his childhood: In early 2022 - after a year in which SpaceX had conducted thirty-one satellite launches, Tesla had sold a million cars and he had become the richest man in the world - Musk set about a deal that would lead to one of the most sensational acquisitions of our time: Twitter. In his darkest hours, Musk would remember being tormented by his father in the playground and at home for years to come. Now, however, he was presented with the opportunity to own the world's ultimate playground.For two years, author Walter Isaacson was able to observe Elon Musk up close, attending his meetings, walking with him through his factories and spending hours interviewing himself, his family, friends, colleagues and adversaries. The result is a revealing insider's account, filled to the brim with amazing stories of triumph and turmoil, that asks: in the end, are the demons that drive Musk what it takes to innovate and progress?
