Tim Dry's virtuoso memoir of a life in arts, rises and falls through the worlds of art school, mime and New Romantic pop, to the cinema of Star Wars and the theatre of Steven Berkoff, hallucinogenic drugs, internationally-prized photography, a globetrottery of commercials and a career in literature. From a childhood encounter with a UFO to playing an alien monster in the cult film, Xtro; from seeing The Beatles as a boy to working with Angie Bowie, and performing in front of 100,000 people with Gary Numan, Tim Dry breaks into a theatre to see Kate Bush; makes a highwire appearance on stage with Duran Duran; photographs Mick Jagger; is paid to go berserk as a robot in Germany; has a week-long near nude scene in a film with Ann-Margaret; encounters Her Majesty The Queen; and presents a food programme on Channel 4. All this and much, much more.

The book is distinctive in that it continues the life story as a sociological genre, and as a methodological construct [it] attempts the comprehensive life story which engages the totality of a person’s life by capturing the essence and the development of a peerless human being. Though there are questions whether it is possible to arrange the totality of a life, an important part of the legacy at the moment comes in various forms, including biographies, video diaries, autobiographies, home web pages, and journals, but I realize all life stories are constructed and partial, yet, the attempt here is to tell a story of a member of the ruling elite rarely told. This book is part of a series about cosmopolitan life and no better way to serve that purpose than to use the life story as part of that tradition.

There is great demand in the knowledge gap to explore the scientific and evidence-based knowledge of CAM in the anticancer field. With this aim, a book series is needed to structurally deliver the knowledge to readers. There have been a number of ...
