The Elon Musk Book Club at Bloomberg SF
I read a preprint of Ashlee Vance’s new biography, and was captivated, especially by the early history. I have know Elon since early 1996, yet, I felt a little startled each time I found my name in the book, twelve times. =)
Here is a wonderful counterpoint of quotes from the back cover, the first by the moderator of our panel:
“This is the definitive look at the man who may have the biggest impact on the human race. Should Musk bring humanity to Mars, this [book] will be the planet’s founding document.”
— BRAD STONE, author of the bestselling The Everything Store: Jeff Bezos and the Age of Amazon
“This thrilling book will make you want to start a car company, build spaceships, and go to Mars. The only downside is when you eventually remember that you’re not Elon Musk.”
— Aaron Levie, CEO of Box
