Deze bibliografie leest als een boeiende roman die je wil blijven lezen met onverwacht plotwendingen gebaseerd op een absoluut briljant persoon. Iemand die zoveel bedrijven leidt niet alleen als manager maar ook als ingenieur die zijn eigen producten tot in de details kent en waar nodig zelfs sturing kan geven aan de technische implementatie van zijn ideeën kan je niet anders dan als een genie beschouwen. Of je als niet genie zou willen samenwerken of voor hem zou willen werken is echter een ander verhaal! Captivating story of Elon Musk. The sheer brilliance and mind-numbing projects and ideas is incredible. Perhaps a handful of people on the planet who think - and achieve - like this. Though Isaacson does a good job, it felt out of balance (anti-Elon, and anti-free speech) in the Twitter sections, and this was disappointing. Excellent book about a really really interesting man. Just incredible the intensity and depth of his work. Reminds me of some people I have had the privilege of working with. Also makes me feel like I have wasted a lot of my time! A loooong book; 20 hours on audible. Only downside is that the reader is a little pedantic. aucune critique | ajouter une critique

I like the way the book provided a deep dive into the inner workings of Mr. Musk's companies: Tesla, SpaceX and his early days at Twitter. He is so driven and expects everyone around him to be totally devoted to their jobs. He is a difficult boss who can also be inspirational. He has an extremely high tolerance for risk that can make it difficult to work for him. But look at what he's achieved!
This book had a different tone from most of the other works by Mr. Isaacson that I've read. It is the second of his books about living people that I've read (the other being Code Breaker) and I was surprised that the author inserted himself in the latter part of the book. I was also disappointed that the book wasn't always chronological, which had me wondering where the subject was in his personal life while various work challenges were presenting themselves (or being created by Mr. Musk).
In spite of that, Mr. Isaacson has done his usual great job of bringing a well researched, multidimensional subject to the reader in an inspiring way.
p.s. I loved Maye Musk, Elon's mother. She is an inspiration herself! ( )
