Learning from people who see the world differently

I am currently writing books on two individuals who fascinate me: Elon Musk and Albert Camus.
I was drawn to Musk through studying Tesla and SpaceX, having worked as investor for twenty years at Goldman Sachs, The Carlyle Group and Ares Management.
And I was drawn to Camus through studying how people seek purpose in their work, having worked in international development (Mid-East Adviser to Tony Blair and Chair of Save the Children UK).
Musk and Camus are so different though? Yes. You would not choose to be either of them. But they both were able to find meaning in life by creating things.
My approach is shaped by studying History at Cambridge University where I learned that, if you really want to understand someone, you have to look at them in their context, the people that influenced them, their heroes, their peers and their enemies.
