Library Journal called the book a "readable, caustic polemic [which] is very short on biographical data and cited sources and lacks scholarly development. Given its provocative nature, it is recommended for libraries owning several titles about Mother Teresa despite its weaknesses." [1]

The New York Times Book Review says the book is "very short, zealously overwritten, and rails wildly in defense of an almost nonsensical proposition: that Mother Teresa of Calcutta is actually not a saint but an evil and selfish old woman. And Mr. Hitchens . . . is rather convincing... Hitchens argues his case with consummate style." [2]

Michael Jordan? Paul McCartney?

Edit: Jackie Chan?

I would have to go with Ali on this one (though, I pretty much do not know anything outside of the US.)

Ali, Tiger, and McCartney are three names that come to mind
