Elon Musk: Tesla, SpaceX, and the Quest for a Fantastic Future by Ashlee Vance

4.0

I listened to this on audible. Highly entertaining and highly recommend for car road trips and long commutes.

Excellent narration, not slow.

He definitely has a point, while all companies rush to make safe and profitable products (Everyone wants to make a watch / tv nowadays!!), he is pursuing more risky and way more interesting problems to solve (solar energy, electric cars and space travel).

The other dark side is that he seems to be a workaholic who is tough on people working for him and who expects people to show up every weekend to work on their deadlines.
