Elon Musk Tesla, SpaceX, and the Quest for a Fantastic Future

"[T]his work will likely serve as the definitive account of a man whom so far we've seen mostly through caricature. By the final pages, too, any reader will sense the need to put comparisons to Steve Jobs aside. Give Musk credit. There is no one like him." - New York Times Book Review
"Mr. Vance tells the stories of both SpaceX and Tesla with intricacy and insight. . . . What does come through is a sense of legitimate wonder at what humans can accomplish when they aim high, and aim weird. - Dwight Garner, New York Times
"[A] spirited and riveting biography." - Wall Street Journal
"The SpaceX and Tesla founder certainly sees setbacks as an unavoidable part of innovation. But a brilliant new biography paints a picture of him as an obsessive, intolerant perfectionist. Author Ashlee Vance describes him spitting cold coffee across a conference room at Tesla, the electric car venture he also heads, and demanding his team 'work harder, do more, and mess up less.'" - Financial Times
