Hello Charles,
Thank you for your feedback on the Elon Musk book by Walter Isaacson. I, too, read his book on Steve Jobs, which was very enlightening. I posted a second book by Isaacson on Leonardo da Vinci, which I haven't read but is supposed to be outstanding, with plenty of science in it. I also have his book on Benjamin Franklin. I plan to write a review on that book as well, as long as it looks like it would be a fit to our group.

I loved Isaacson's earlier book on Jobs. I'm sure this new one on Musk. I would love to read this book.

I recommend the book "Elon Musk" by Walter Isaacson for our book club. I read it in a local book club. If you read "Steve Jobs" by this author, this book goes far beyond that book in sheer technological accomplishments across a wide variety of fields. Here is a quote from Amazon: "From the author of Steve Jobs and other bestselling biographies, this is the astonishingly intimate story of the most fascinating and controversial innovator of our era-a rule-breaking visionary who helped to lead the world into the era of electric vehicles, private space exploration, and artificial intelligence. Oh, and took over Twitter."
