Its available online, google, 1 second later.....

Eddie, i'll be interested in your review as well. Degen is indeed a nice man, i met him in Singapore while at Aquarama one time. One of the friendliest and most open discus gurus i have met.

I thought Axelrod was in jail for tax evasion.

He got 18 months for tax fraud in 2005 - a long time for a 78 year old (as he was then). He's had a 'colourful' life . . .
