内容説明
* A beautifully produced visual tribute to the King of Pop * An unprecedented collection of images taking us behind the scenes of Jackson's amazing career * The latest in the successful Life in Pictures series A fitting tribute to the undisputed 'King of Pop', this lavishly illustrated book takes us on a visual tour of Michael Jackson's colourful, highly publicized, sometimes controversial, but exceptionally gifted life. From his earliest performances with The Jackson 5 in the '60s to multi-million album success as a solo artist, this book provides a unique behind-the-scenes look at this essentially shy but legendary artist. Capturing the essence of his innovations in music, dance and video, these images show how Jackson transformed popular culture to become one of the most commercially successful entertainers of all time. The latest in the Life in Pictures series, this is a beautifully produced book filled with wonderful, often surprisingly intimate images - a celebration of one of the most talented artists of all time and the perfect gift for any Jackson fan.

たいていのマイケル本は揃えましたが、この本はその中でもレベルが高く気に入った一冊です。紙質は良く、見たことがない写真も多数あり（写真そのものは解像度が良く美しいものが多い）見ごたえがあります。「A Life in Pictures」という題名はシリーズ化されているようで、グレースケリーやヘップバーンなども複数出版されているようです。そのあたり、にわかではない、きちんとした「プロ」が編集したな、と思わせるデザイン、文字配置、写真のチョイスで、読みながらうっとりしてしまいます。内容ですが、幼少期から死（死をめぐっては、棺や家族、嘆くファン達、メッセージボードなどの写真です。ゴシップ写真は皆無で、センスの良い写真が並ぶためファンとしては悲しいですが嫌な気分にはなりません）まで、順を追って写真が掲載されていきます。難を言うなら冒頭の説明文でしょうか。ファンにとってはあまりよろしくない客観的な（というか冷酷な）文章で･･･悪意とまでは言いませんが･･･。ま、それでも写真集としては逸品。

One of the Best Books on Michael
2010/3/4
形式:ハードカバー
I do believe that I have purchased everything that has been written on Michael, and I must say that I enjoyed this book tremendously: so much so that it is now one of my favorites. It was very well written and the authors were very careful to bring depth to the facts of Michael's life. I thoroughly enjoyed reading this book, and honestly it was very difficult to put it down. The first section is about Michael's life, and then the rest of it has some really awesome pictures of Michael. I would highly recommend purchasing this book. I hope you enjoy it as much as I did.

This book should have stuck to its title, "A Life in Pictures"

This book is beautifully illustrated. I finally purchased a book about Michael Jackson with quite a few photos of Michael I had not seen before. However, some of the dates that accompany the photos are questionable, others are plain wrong! For example, on page 56 the photo "overleaf" states, "1971 Michael aged 17". Michael turned 17 in 1975. Also, the photos on pages 86 and 87 are dated 1986, but these photos are from the 1990's or perhaps even from MJ's 30th Anniversary Concert in 2001. Either way, these photos are not from 1986.
These glaringly obvious errors made me wonder about the accuracy of the "stories" at the beginning of this book. As an unwaveringly loyal fan of Michael Jackson's for 18 years, I felt a lot of what was written at the beginning of the book was unnecessary, particularly with regard to Michael's children.
This book would have been much more enjoyable without the author's opinion of Michael and his life. I found some of it hard to read. Why do we need to keep reading about the 2005 court case for which Michael was found NOT GUILTY? Why couldn't the author celebrate the joy MJ brought his fans through his music and dancing? And why is there barely a mention of Michael's humanitarian efforts? Also, the author constantly makes comments about Michael's psychological state. If he was so "damaged" then why are his children happy, polite, well-adjusted young people?
A great book for the pictures, but a let down with the errors and, what I feel, is disrespectful writing about Michael. I would recommend MJ fans buy this book for the photos, but do not bother reading the beginning. It makes interesting reading if you know nothing of the legend that is Michael Jackson, but talking about the paternity of his children and the court case that almost ruined him is in extremely poor taste!!!

A valuable book for MJ fans!

I am very please to have owned this book. It is a very beautiful, informative book with lots of beautiful texts and pictures of Michael printed on quality paper with a nice hardcover. There is a close-up image of Michael's face (in a recent year) which to me is just so dear that just makes me want to love and miss Him even more... I love Michael and I love this book, that all I want to say, to share and let the world knows that We Are Not Alone!
