Abstract
|
:
|
Brings together celebrated and notorious figures from the arts, sports, politics and other spheres, from Michael Jordan and Paula Yates to David Bowie and Denver's murderous Trench Coat Mafia. Also shows why there is no parallel in history to today's ubiquitous 'living' form of celebrity, powered by newspapers, PR departments, magazines and electronic mass-media. [book cover].
