"Allein die nüchternen Daten zum Muhammad-Ali-Buch hauen den Betrachter mächtig in die Seile. Mit diesem Werk wird der Begriff 'Buch' von Grund auf revolutioniert ... GOAT - Greatest of All Time wird durch seine bemerkenswerte Ausmaße dem Ruhm des größten Sportlers aller Zeiten zu hundert Prozent gerecht." Fritz, Landau Germany

"What is power? What does it mean to be fair? What is war? What is America? GOAT will provide answers to those very simple yet eternal questions." STUDIO VOICE, Tokyo Japan

"At 6 feet and 195 pounds, Muhammad Ali would barely qualify as a heavyweight today. But a new book will. "GOAT: A Tribute to Muhammad Ali" weighs in at 75 pounds, with more than 3,000 photographs by 200 photographers, plus essays and excerpts by more than 50 authors. It has taken the German publisher TASCHEN four years to create the "limited edition" book. In late April, 10,000 copies will be released, each one numbered and autographed by Ali." San Francisco Chronicle, San Francisco United States

"That winning schoolboy smile and scatty banter mixed with punishing physical might: Ali himself put it best when he boasted, "I am the onliest." GOAT (or Greatest of All Time), TASCHEN`s latest book-as-celebrity, is a literal monument to the prize fighter, as beguilingly larger-than-life as Ali himself. The result of four years` labor and Benedikt Taschen`s idée fixe (he`s said to have taken up boxing while working on it), the stunning biolith weighs in at 75 pounds, costs $3,000, was bound at the Vatican`s official bindery, and pays homage to the Louisville Lip in nearly 800 pages of essays, photos, and illustrations, including work by artist Jeff Koons and Ali photographer Howard Bingham. (A $7,500 Champ`s Edition, bound in trunk silk and limited to 1,000 copies includes a Koons original and four gelatin-silver prints by Bingham)." Readymade, Berkeley United States

"A violent and beautiful giant with a sense of humor, GOAT is TASCHEN's tribute to the life of Muhammad Ali. He did not just knock out his opponents in the ring, he used his big mouth, like a rap musician, to hurl taunts and provocations at society. His life was a struggle against adversity. Nothing has changed since the Vietnam War. This book is a reminder that war is always with us." Title, Tokyo Japan

"Da Muhammad Ali der größte Boxer aller Zeiten war, hat auch das Buch über den Jahrhundertsportler exorbitante Ausmaße verdient. Der Bildband ist ein riesiges Fest über Alis Leben und Karriere, illustriert von einer Menge bisher unveröffentlichter Bilder. Zahlreiche Essays berrühmter Autoren, darunter auch Alis eigene Aufzeichnungen, machen das Buch GOAT - Greatest of All Time zum Literatur- Ereignis" Diners Club Magazin, München Germany

"Ce n'est pas d'un livre qu'il s'agit ici, mais d'un réel monument à la glorieuse image de Muhammad Ali, alias Cassius Clay. (...) Plus qu'un livre, il s'agit d'un film très long métrage, qui replace l'incroyable histoire d'Ali au centre de notre mémoire contemporaine. (...) GOAT est un ouvrage somptueux, un brin mégalo à l'image de la star, mais surtout une oeuvre d'art inclassable." L'Indépendant, Paris France

"Ali est grand. Entre livre et oeuvre d'art, anthologie et biographie, mythe et réalité, voilà une pièce d'exception, ouvrage inouï retraçant la vie et l'histoire de Muhammad Ali, star du ring et boxeur idéologique prêt à défendre ses idées et sa liberté." Vogue, Paris France

"El más grande. Tiene 800 páginas, pesa 34 kilos, mide 50 x 50 cm y sólo se han editado 10.000 ejemplares en todo el mundo. Hablamos de GOAT, Greatest of All Times, el tributo definitivo a Muhammed Alí. El propio ex-boxeador ha firmado cada uno de los ejemplares, al igual que el artista americano Jeff Koons, que además ha aportado una escultura a las primeras mil copias, éstas cuentas además con una edición limitada de originales en gelatina de plata firmadas por Alí y su mejor amigo, el fotógrafo Howard Bingham, su precio, 7.500€. Las otras 9.000 copias cuestan sólo 3.000€. De este libro que la editorial ha tardado cuatro años en hacer realidad, se ha dicho: ‘Esto no es un libro. Es un monumento en papel." Vogue, Madrid Spain

"Señoras e senhores…neste canto do ringue, com 35 quilos, 780 páginas, 50 cm en cada um dos lados e preço de capa de R$ 15.9000, o campeao mundial dos pesos pesados entre os livros de arte: GOAT, A Tribute do Muhammad Alí. Producido pela alema TASCHEN, editora de belos volumen de luxo, GOAT é o acrônimom de Greatest of all Time, o mayor de todos os tempos, homenagem ao pugilista que transformou a lona em palco político, (…) GOAT está para o mercado editorial como Ali esteve para os ringues -é mayor de todos, para usar a expressao iconoclasta e arrogante que campeao brandia para se autodefinir (…)." Istoe, Sao Paulo Brazil
