His managers autobiography talks a lot about HIM, thats worth checking out - Bernie Brillstein, Where Did I Go Right. I think thats maybe the best option.

I don't recall many books that don't just focus on his work life, there have been some TV documentaries that have gone a bit further but not much.

I heard there was a reason for that. I mean why there hasen't really been any bio about him. Didn't it have something to do with his Christian Science beliefs or something like that?
