Elon Musk By Walter Isaacson

Elon Musk by Walter Isaacson is the definitive biography of one of the most controversial and influential entrepreneurs of the 21st century. Written by the acclaimed biographer of Steve Jobs, Benjamin Franklin, and Leonardo da Vinci, this book provides an intimate, behind-the-scenes portrait of Musk’s life and work.

Based on two years of exclusive access to Musk, his family, friends, colleagues, and even critics, Isaacson delivers a gripping narrative that explores Musk’s childhood in South Africa, his early ventures like Zip2 and PayPal, and his groundbreaking companies — Tesla, SpaceX, Neuralink, and The Boring Company.

The book sheds light on Musk’s relentless drive, risk-taking nature, and complex personality — equal parts visionary genius and ruthless taskmaster. Readers will see the man behind the headlines: his struggles with family, his passion for pushing humanity toward Mars, and his obsession with innovation and survival of humankind.

More than just a biography, Elon Musk is a story of innovation, resilience, and the cost of ambition in shaping the future of technology and space exploration.
