The book, titled “Elon Musk,” is written by Walter Isaacson, the Pulitzer Prize-winning biographer of Steve Jobs, Albert Einstein, and Benjamin Franklin. Isaacson had unprecedented access to Musk, interviewing him for more than 200 hours and speaking to his family, friends, and colleagues.
The book reveals that Musk is obsessed with colonizing other planets, particularly Mars. He believes that humanity’s survival depends on expanding beyond Earth, and he is willing to spend billions of dollars to make it happen.
Musk also has a strong sense of purpose, and he believes that his companies are making the world a better place. Tesla is leading the way in the development of electric cars, SpaceX is making space travel more affordable, and Neuralink is developing brain-computer interfaces that could revolutionize medicine and technology.
However, the book also shows that Musk can be a difficult boss. He has been known to fly into rages when he is frustrated, and he has been accused of mistreating his employees.
Musk is also a controversial figure in his personal life. He has been married three times and has 10 children. In 2021, he was revealed to have fathered twins with a Neuralink executive.
In an interview with Isaacson, Musk acknowledged that he is not perfect. He said that he is trying to be a better person, but that he still has a lot to learn.
“I’m still under development,” he said. “I’m still learning.”
Here are some additional details from the book:
- Musk was diagnosed with Asperger syndrome, a form of autism, when he was a child. He says that this diagnosis has helped him to understand his own personality and the way he interacts with the world.
- Musk’s childhood was difficult. He was bullied at school, and he often felt like an outsider.
- Musk is a workaholic. He often works 12-hour days, and he is constantly thinking about his businesses.
- Musk is a visionary. He has a clear vision for the future, and he is determined to make it a reality.
The book is sure to be a must-read for anyone interested in Elon Musk, his businesses, or his vision for the future.
