    About this ebook

    This book encompasses many of the best moments of Jeremy Paxman's career to date as a journalist and presenter, including transcripts from his most memorable interviews, particularly the ones on BBC2 television's Newsnight.

    Although he avoids talking about his private life, there are quotations from Paxman about himself. And others give their opinions of him. Paxman's views on a variety of subjects and his frequent flashes of irreverent wit give further insight into what makes him tick.

    One thing is for sure, no-one can fail to admire his fearless, direct and persistent questioning to uncover the truth.
