Elon Musk controls the very tiniest things, and the very biggest. He oversees companies, valued at more than $1 trillion, whose engineers have built or are building, among other things, reusable rocket ships, a humanoid robot, hyperloops for rapid transit, and a man-machine interface to be implanted in human brains. He is an entrepreneur, a media mogul, a political provocateur, and, not least, a defense contractor. Day by day, Musk’s companies control more of the Internet, the power grid, the transportation system, objects in orbit, the nation’s security infrastructure, and its energy supply.

And yet. At a jury trial earlier this year, Musk’s lawyer repeatedly referred to his client, a middle-aged man, as a “kid.” The Wall Street Journal has described him as suffering from “tantrums.” The Independent has alleged that selling Twitter to Musk was “like handing a toddler a loaded gun.” How does a biographer begin to write about such a man? At the link in our bio, Jill Lepore reviews Walter Isaacson’s new biography, “Elon Musk,” which can scarcely contain its subject. Photograph by Mark Mahaney.
