History
Warhol signed two book contracts in 1974 with Harcourt, one for "The Philosophy" and the second for a biography of Paulette Goddard, which did happen..
"The Philosophy" was ghostwritten by Warhol's secretary Pat Hackett and his Interview Magazine editor Bob Colacello. Much of the material is drawn from conversations Andy had taped between himself and Colacello and Brigid Berlin.
Warhol promoted the book in September 1975 on a nine-city U.S. book tour, followed by stops in Italy, France, and England.
