In this fully updated paperback edition of the Sunday Times bestseller, Jonny Wilkinson opens up to reveal what it is like to be the world's most famous rugby player and an international sporting superstar. MY WORLD is a fascinating insight into his motivations, thoughts, hopes and fears as he discusses topics as far ranging as playing for England, his all-time heroes, becoming a celebrity, what it is like to be on the pitch with the hopes of a nation resting on your shoulders and in your feet and the positives that could be taken from the 2005 Lions Tour.

For the first time, Jonny Wilkinson talks openly about the England World Cup campaign and the pressure he was under in those dramatic final moments when he won the cup for his country. Two years on he also reveals the battles he has had to face to bring himself back to full fitness as England build their team round him in preparation for the 2007 World Cup.

Jonny Wilkinson became England's youngest international for 71 years when he made his debut at fly-half at 18 years old in March 1998. In the 2003 World Cup he was the competition's leading points scorer with 113 points in six games, and overall he is England's all-time scorer with 817 points from his 52 caps to date. He has also won five British Lions caps. He was awarded the MBE in January 2003, the youngest rugby player of all time to achieve this honour.
