Amazonia Book Shoppe

Reminiscent of the biography of Steve Jobs, this is the story of another entrepreneur who has the ability to make what most people feel impossible, become possible. Generally, I like biographies about characters that seem “larger than life” because they show qualities that I can relate to by displaying their mortal side. When it comes to Musk and characters like him, I don’t feel able to relate as they seem to be above human – almost robotic. I sensed the same perception by the author when relating his initial meetings with his subject in the restaurant.

There is definitely a place in the world for the likes of an Elon Musk in order to evolve and keep things fresh and interesting, however, I would rather just let the “super humans” handle that onus, and focus on characters that are more down to earth. This is, of course, just my personal opinion.
