WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange has signed a book deal to tell his "fascinating" life story.
Edinburgh-based Canongate Books said it has acquired world rights - apart from North America - to the whistleblower's story.
Mr Assange, who is on bail facing extradition proceedings to Sweden on charges of sexual assault, leapt into the limelight with a string of headlines as a result of US cables published on his WikiLeaks website.
