This book is a complete absurd... It is nothing more than another attempt to cash-in on George Michael's recent situation by the people, who profit from gossips and heinous stories in the first place. This book is not official and using GM's name as one of the authors is simply criminal. Yes, it is a collection of quotes made by GM at various times, but... taken out of the content, they aim to work as yet another illustation of a weak and stupid pop-star, WHICH HE IS NOT. I believe that tabloid biz is the worst way (even prostitutes sell their own bodies as oppose to selling stories about other peoples' bodies) to make a living (and what a good living it must be), that is why I do not EVER buy tabloids. So, I am really angry that I was "tricked" into buying another version of a tabliod issue, conveniently called a "book by George Michael" himself. I DO NOT BLAME AMAZON.COM. AT LEAST, I COULD GET A REFUND, THANKS TO AMAZON.COM. It is the publishers, who should be ashamed of themselves!

I think the artist reveals more about himself through his music than this book reveals about him. The book is basically a collection of quotes made by the artist which have been printed over the years. There is not much information on the lawsuit with Sony either. Most of the material is dated. I would find a book written by the artist himself more interesting than a reproduction of tabloids. Maybe the title should read "In Their Own Words" since the quotes are derivative from the media.

It was an excellent book; very informative. I read it over and over. Great pictures!

this Book puts different things He has said over the years kinda all Scattered out.it's cool reading Respect that He has gotten from different Artists&Groups in the Business.His Battle was Legendary with Sony.it Inspired Prince for better or Worse.but that isn't mentioned here.He deserves a full book that highlights His Talent&Career in full detail.interesting overview here though on His Artistic Challenges&Influences.
