I think Dr.Nick waited too long to release this book had he done it within 5 or 10 years of Elvis' death the hype, the controversy and the interest by all the fans and even non fans surrounding this book would've been huge which would have resulted in more sales and more money.
32 years after Elvis' death Dr.Nick's story just isn't as interesting because so much has been said already about his death and Elvis has been gone a long time now.
So Dr.Nick blew it

The other reason would be to tell his side of the story and try and change people's perception about him
He could've and should've tried to do that years ago and at the same time as I said the book would've done better if he had done that.
A lot of people that would've read a book by Dr.Nick 15-20 years ago won't now.
As I said Dr.Nick just blew it
Possible. This would imply he's convinced of his innocense...why would he wait 32 years to defend himself and tell the truth?
I'm sure Dr.Nick is convinced of his innocence even if he knows he was really guilty he's probably convinced himself that he was falsely accused and would never admit to any wrong doing anyway.
It's like a lot of people in prison that are guilty as hell would never admit to the crime or crimes the've committed.
He may admit to doing a couple of things a little unethical but he'll say it was all for the good of Elvis and his other patients like he has said in the past when first accused of overprescribing.
Well, but then....what 'new' would he have to offer in his book?
More details and he'll probably elaborate more about things that went on.
I"ll be getting this.I think Elvis used alot of doctors to get prescription drugs and I don"t think he was an angel but I think he did care. Billy Smith and Dr Nick did try changing his medication with placebos.
"But the man cared,and I"d hate like hell to have been Dr Nick and had Elvis Presley for a patient" quote by Billy Smith Revelations of Memphis Mafia .I can understand that. I"ve read some interviews with Dr Nick a open mind and will do the same with his book.
Before you abuse, criticize and accuse. Then walk a mile in my shoes
totally agree with you here, Donut. My first thought was no way! But I've got it on pre-order! I'll loan it to you, if you want!Although I was reluctant to buy it I'll probably end up ordering it too. I have zero willpower
Just pretend, I'm holding you, and whispering things soft and low.
And think of me, how it's gonna be and just pretend I didn't go
Why has he decided to unreveal truth after 32 years ? If there is some truth untold why he didn't tell them after king's death ?!!
He was the firstest with the mostest.
Thank you Lisatotally agree with you here, Donut. My first thought was no way! But I've got it on pre-order! I'll loan it to you, if you want!but I live a little far away
