Power Play: Tesla, Elon Musk, and the Bet of the Century is Tim Higgins's book about Tesla, Inc., published on February 11, 2021, that focuses on the company under the management of Elon Musk. The book does not contain any interviews with Musk himself, but many anonymous current and former executives from Tesla.[1] In response to the book in general, Musk tweeted "Higgins managed to make his book both false and boring".[2]
Reception
The Minnesota Star Tribune wrote that it "has done an outstanding job [and] performed a deep dive into the nuts and volts of Tesla."[3] The Los Angeles Times Tesla reporter Russ Mitchell reviewed the book and stated "I've covered Tesla as a reporter since 2016. When Higgins writes about facts and situations I'm familiar with, I can attest he's right on the button, every time. If there's any nonsense in Power Play, Higgins isn't the source of it."[4]
