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' 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.

Sample key takeaways:

1. SARS-CoV-2 is a deadly virus more commonly known as coronavirus. The resulting disease from the virus is called COVID-19. Some infections produce no symptoms at all, while others cause lung inflammation, which leads to difficulty breathing and a myriad of other potential symptoms and complications.

2. The pandemic began in Wuhan, China. Like all pandemics, the number of infections began slowly but grew exponentially. By May 2020, the American Enterprise Institute estimated the number of COVID-19 cases in China was 2.9 million. The official figures reported by China are drastically lower but almost certainly undercounted.

3. The virus was spread to Italy by Chinese citizens arriving in Milan for Fashion Week. Italy’s older population and strained medical facilities exacerbated the spread of COVID-19, but unlike China, numbers were recorded accurately, serving as a demonstration of the effects of the virus for the entire world.
