In the spirit of Steve Jobs and Moneyball, Elon Musk is both an illuminating and authorized look at the extraordinary life of one of Silicon Valley’s most exciting, unpredictable, and ambitious entrepreneurs—a real-life Tony Stark—and a fascinating exploration of the renewal of American invention and its new "makers."

Elon Musk spotlights the technology and vision of Elon Musk, the renowned entrepreneur and innovator behind SpaceX, Tesla, and SolarCity, who sold one of his internet companies, PayPal, for $1.5 billion. Ashlee Vance captures the full spectacle and arc of the genius’s life and work, from his tumultuous upbringing in South Africa and flight to the United States to his dramatic technical innovations and entrepreneurial pursuits.

Vance uses Musk’s story to explore one of the pressing questions of our age: can the nation of inventors and creators who led the modern world for a century still compete in an age of fierce global competition? He argues that Musk—one of the most unusual and striking figures in American business history—is a contemporary, visionary amalgam of legendary inventors and industrialists including Thomas Edison, Henry Ford, Howard Hughes, and Steve Jobs. More than any other entrepreneur today, Musk has dedicated his energies and his own vast fortune to inventing a future that is as rich and far-reaching as the visionaries of the golden age of science-fiction fantasy.

Thorough and insightful, Elon Musk brings to life a technology industry that is rapidly and dramatically changing by examining the life of one of its most powerful and influential titans.

和《乔布斯传》比，这本书非常平庸，看的过程中丝毫感觉不到剖析天才的激动，更像是平淡的叙述，只是告诉你发生了哪些事，而且逻辑性还很差。 我只好当作故事书来看。 马斯克总是拿来和乔布斯一起比较，天才大概是相通的，脾气暴躁，反复无常，直接，专制，对目标坚定，高度自...  

这本书出版才个把月，是硅谷作家Ashlee VANCE写的创业男神Elon MUSK的传记。全书分大概10章，分别介绍了Musk的幼年成长、加拿大生活（是的，他祖父母是加拿大人，后来跑去了之前从未去过的南非住）和学习、Zip2和Paypal创业、创立SpaceX公司、Tesla公司传奇和Solarcity公司的辉...
