Featuring a wide range of personalities--including sports figures, politicians, writers, captains of industry, actors and actresses, physicians, and scientists--this is a unique look at the missteps of some of the most noted individuals of both the past and the present day. There's the bestselling novelist who can't forgive himself for choking when appearing for charity on "Who Wants to Be a Millionaire," and the famous talk show host whose wife won't forgive him" "for turning down an invitation to dinner with Clint Eastwood. The regrets range from the humorous--not taking toilet paper on an expedition to the North Pole--to the intensely personal and moving--not spending more time with an ailing parent.
