Chapter 1. Tesla through 2015; something old and something new -- Chapter 2. 2012-2015: industry form follows technology function -- Chapter 3. 2016: "Real cars" and real competition -- Chapter 4. 2017: "Enter" the incumbents -- Chapter 5. 2018: One "hell" of a purgatory -- Chapter 6. Epilogue: Into 2019.
As an extension of Volumes I and II of this series, this book contains a very detailed elaboration of the Tesla story, in a way that also serves to examine the interaction of technology and economic forces that determine the evolution of the structural profitability of any industry, especially capital-intense industries. The underlying economics are the "five forces" introduced to the management lexicon in the strategic management corpus of research. Here there is strong emphasis on the interplay among product technology, production and supply chains, and "Wall Street."
