PayPal was sold by Elon Musk, the developer and entrepreneur behind SpaceX, Tesla, and SolarCity, for a sum of $1.5 billion. From his turbulent beginnings in South Africa and escape to the United States to his stunning technological inventions and economic aspirations, Ashlee Vance portrays the complete spectacle and arc of the genius's life and career. Using Musk's narrative, Vance delves into a contemporary issue: at a time of intense international rivalry, can the country of innovators and creators that steered the modern world for a century still be competitive? He contends that Steve Jobs, Henry Ford, Howard Hughes, Thomas Edison, and other notable businessmen are all embodied in Musk. Musk has devoted more of his time and resources than any other modern entrepreneur to creating a future as prosperous and expansive as the visionaries of the heyday of science fiction and fantasy.
