Today if someone asks who will lead the future of technology, Elon Musk will be one of the names to pop up on our minds. Thanks to his inventions ranging from Tesla to SpaceX, his net worth is now $15.2 billion. Well, when you ask Musk, how he learnt to build rockets, the 45 year old would say, “I read books.”

Musk went to pursue PhD degree in Physics from Stanford University but later dropped out because the course work failed to excite him.
Musk is a bookworm, since his childhood days. While his stay in South Africa, he was fascinated by the writings of J.R.R. Tolkien and Isaac Asimov. Although he keeps a busy schedule now, he never forgets to carry a book with him and reads it.

We got you the list of books that have shaped the entrepreneurial life of Musk.
