Synopsis

THE INSIDE SCOOP ON ONE OF THE MOST INFLUENTIAL FIGURES IN TODAY'S SOCIETY As the media guru at the centre of our celebrity-obsessed culture, Max Clifford has become a symbol for our age, one of the most influential figures in today's society and a household name. What is less known is that he keeps more stories out of the papers than he reveals, to protect his rich and famous clients. Max fearlessly and controversially fights corruption and will often take the side of the underdog against the rich and powerful. But what is the story behind Max Clifford himself? The other side of Max is revealed for the first time: his mischievous sense of humour; his dedication to helping people from all walks of life; his love for his wife of nearly forty years who tragically died of cancer and his devotion to his daughter Louise who, at six, was diagnosed with juvenile rheumatoid arthritis and is permanently disabled. Get the full story from Max himself in this controversial, funny and compelling autobiography.

From the Publisher

Max has become a symbol for our age, one of the most influential figures in today's society and a household name, frequently called upon by the media to pass judgement on celebrity matters. More often than not Max brilliantly silences radio and TV audiences by putting in perspective the problem of celebrities misbehaving – a recent example being his views on Kate Moss’s behaviour. Max more than anyone understands the pact that people make when they become celebrities and the responsibilities that they have to their public. But nowadays these are very complex issues and Max serves a purpose in guiding these people through the various minefields and by making himself available to the media, he tries to clarify the issues that these people have to grapple with. However normally only short sound bites broadcast his message and his motives are often misconstrued, sometimes deliberately, and that is one of the main reasons Max decided to write a book. The other reason was Angela Levin; and Max astutely recognised that he could search forever and find no more trusty observer and chronicler than Angela. During the course of writing this wonderful, entertaining and I believe important book she became, if you will, a female Boswell to Max’s Samuel Johnson.
