Very well done.......2004-05-11
For a book that covers so many disparate types of daytime programs (game shows, soap operas, sports, cartoons and kids' shows, and so on), the volume is remarkably accurate, well-written and heavily researched. You'd think the author was an expert on every genre. Maybe he is, but more likely, he just cared enough to get everything right. How refreshing.
Great.......1999-01-11

A Must Reference.......2005-09-28
Any Bugs Bunny collector/enthusiast must have this book. The filmography alone at the end of the book is worth the price as a reference. I can compare it to my videos and Golden Collection DVDs and see what was covered. Great insights and sketches, big full color photos... you will not be disappointed.
YOU OUGHT TO LOVE BUGS.......2003-06-08
Bugs Bunny is the greatest cartoon character of all time. I really love that rabbit ever since I got a Bugs Bunny stuffed animal.
I think with _Bugs Bunny 50 Years and Only One Grey Hare_, people will understand everyone's favorite rabbit, who has entertained Americans and people around the world.
Bugs Bunny's wit and wisdom has made him an icon for all ages. Bugs, a clever beast with long ears who always makes the wrong turn at Alberquerque, has become a hero of many. This rabbit has become a hero for me, like it has been for many.
I think with the book, we will understand that Bugs' wit and wisdom has made him an icon for all ages, especially for all rabbit lovers.
ýThat Rascally Rabbit!ý.......2001-06-29
Joe Adamson does a fine job of bringing Bugs Bunny to "life" in this well-researched book. With a look at the evolution of the character, a breakdown of how the cartoons were received, and an admittedly subjective criticism of the author's 16 favorite Bugs Bunny shorts; the book has everything a Bugs' fan could hope for. Full of storyboards and clips from the cartoons this book is for any fan of animation and a must for the Bugs Bunny fanatic.
The Ultimate Tribute to the "Wascally Wabbit".......2001-06-06
Quick quiz--who is the only cartoon character with a service record in the United States Marine Corps?
If you said "Bugs Bunny", you're right on target. Such was the "scwewy wabbit's" impact during the years of World War II, the Marines insisted that he "enlist," giving him dog tags and ID papers complete with paw prints. At the end of the war, he was honorably discharged as a master sergeant!
Such gestures are hardly surprising, according to Joe Adamson. Bugs' debut in 1940 marked the convergence of a rebellious spirit and a dire period in our history when just such an attitude was sorely needed. We needed to see Bugs nonchalantly thumb his nose at his adversaries when we were facing our most frightening adversaries of all--namely Germany and Japan.
He did not spring to life fully formed, however. Bugs, in seminal form, appeared in a number of cartoons in the late thirties, but was not the wabbit we know him to be. Crazy, out of control, and posessing a Goofy-like voice, he seemed more at home in Bob Clampett's Wackyland than facing the business end of Elmer Fudd's shotgun. Adamson takes us through these early incarnations of Bugs, and gives us a quick history of the Leon Schlesinger studio that spawned him. Schlesinger's outfit had been a decidedly low-rent operation producing second-rate imitations of Disney cartoons when the great "Tex" Avery arrived--and promptly stood the industry on its ear. To Avery, "cute" was out--and a manic, self-aware approach was in. Some two years after the first proto-Bugs cartoons, Avery restyled the embryonic rabbit to fit the new studio philosophy. When faced with a gun-toting hunter, Bugs did not scream or run away, but responded with a smart-alecky "What's up, Doc?"--and immediately shocked and delighted audiences.
Even at the height of his success, Adamson says, the rabbit continued to change and grow, most notably at the hands of his self-styled "analyist," Chuck Jones. Bugs under Jones became a thinking character, fighting only when provoked (and uttering the immortal words "Of course you realize this means war.") This Bugs was a winner, someone who seemed to know something his adversaries Elmer Fudd and Daffy Duck did not. And audiences loved him all the more for it.
Inevitably, as with all stars, Bugs underwent a period of decline, and Adamson takes us through this era as well. The long run on television, the ill-conceived specials and compilation movies are discussed (Chuck Jones' "Carnival Of The Animals" musical feature was the low point). Significant in its absence is Bugs' big-screen re-emergence in "Space Jam"--understandable since this book was first published in 1990 (the best possible excuse for an updated edition, Mr. Adamson.) A detailed background of Bugs and his various opponents takes up the back section of the book, and is quite interesting. There aren't as many behind-the-scenes stories as in Jones' "Chuck Amuck", but it also spares us the endless self-congratulation of Chuck's tome.
This book is a must read for anyone wanting to know the right way to run an animation studio--namely, leave the animators alone (free from interference from networks and parents' groups) and let the magic happen. Leon Schlesinger, who rarely supervised the animators' work if he could help it, unwittingly had the right approach all along.
I loved it!.......1999-10-14
Joe Adamson really hit the spot. I'm the world's biggest Bugs Bunny fan and I was thrilled to discover that somebody cared enough about this true American hero and his life to write a book about him! Even though it was pretty long, it held my attention to the end (when I nearly cried). Few people that are my age really know how important Bugs was to our country - after all, he gave us hope for victory during WWII. I'm really glad Adamson decided to write this book from the views of Chuck Jones, Friz Freleng, and Mel Blanc - it was really good! The photos and paintings really added to it, too. Throughout the whole thing, I learned a ton about this "wascally wabbit". I now know I can confidently answer any question in the world about Bugs Bunny!

Makes the less scholarly among us feel like a "maroon".......2001-05-30
Animation fans be warned--this is anything but light reading.
While I consider myself to be a reasonably intelligent person, I must admit I had considerable trouble slogging through the dense, polysyllabic prose. Once I did so, however, I found the book did contain some interesting observations:
In one installment, one of the book's many co-contributors examines the deconstruction--and reassertion--of gender roles. No news to those of us who are transgendered--the book points out things that many in the TG community find obvious. Namely the main premise, that gender roles are ridiculed (as with Bugs Bunny's crossdressing) in order to reinforce them. Whether the animators themselves had this intention is questionable--they were merely following a formula as old as vaudeville-- but it does make one think. A related essay covers the lampooning of heterosexual behavior in the Pepe Le Pew cartoons. The contributor noticed what I discovered many years ago--that "gay panic" in straight males forces them into the same sort of blissful denial as poor Pepe. They, like Pepe, try to convince the world they are irresistible to women, because that is what defines them as men. Most of all, however, they're trying to convince themselves.
There is also an excellent overview of the portrayal of blacks in Warner Brothers cartoons--it contends, as I have always believed, that the animators themselves were not necessarily racist even if their cartoons sometimes were. The fact that Bob Clampett went so far as to take his animators to a black jazz club in L.A. (as preparation for the brilliant "Coal Black and De Sebben Dwarfs") shows a sincere, if naive, sensitivity on his part. Rather, it was the enforced racial separation of the time--and the resulting ignorance of whites toward black people--that were the real culprits. Those who participated in the making of such cartoons now wish they hadn't--they would hardly have been so contrite if they truly were racist. It is a period they--and we--are now trying too hard to live down.
Given the sometimes insightful essays contained in this book, I wanted desperately to give it a higher rating, but it is weighed down too much by wordy "pedagoguese" for me to give it a higher recommendation. The whole in this case is less than the sum of its parts, and no book that requires one to have a dictionary within arm's reach is fun reading.
A Great Book That Covers Topics Others Wouldn't Think Of.......1999-05-26
This is a great book for anyone who likes warner brothers animation. This book covers many interesting topics that you normally wouldn't think of. Some on the topics cover Gender Evasion of bugs bunny, African-American:Images and portrayal, temporary Disneyfication of Warner cartoons and fans verses Warner Brothers and even talks about the fans erotic fantasys (some people actually think of that ?)on the internet. It's a really interesting book and I really recomend it. It's not boring like others i've read. Each chapter is also written by a different author ( Kevin Sandler only edited them)so it keep it interesting.
Serious, but still fun.......1999-05-11
Over the last few years, academics have discovered the joy of writing about pop culture phenomena. Some (like the contributors to the book Enterprise Zones, a collection of papers on Star Trek) get lost in a fog of postmodernist critical/cultural theory, churning out abstruse and obtuse collections of quotations from French philosophers, ignoring as much as possible the text under study.
Thankfully, the contributors to this book don't do that. They're writing some serious history and commentary, but the Warner Bros. cartoons remain the focus, not what Jameson said about what Derrida said about what Foucault said. More to the point, even when criticizing elements of the cartoons (as in the paper on representation of black characters), the reader senses that the writers are fans of the Warner Bros. cartoons, flawed though some may be. There's always the sense that, no matter how serious the discussion, this is ultimately about something fun.
Oh, and the editor's comments in the introduction, about the recent dumbing down of the classic characters into friendly TV commercial shills and merchandise movers, is right on the money (so to speak).

Book Description
The Emergence of Civilization is a major contribution to our understanding of the development of urban culture and social stratification in the Near Eastern region. Charles Maisels argues that present assumptions about state formation, based on 19th-century speculations, are markedly inaccurate. His investigation illuminates the changes in scale, complexity and hierarchy which usually accompany the development of civilization. Maisels furthermore makes conclusions about the dynamics of social change and the processes of social evolution in general, applying those concepts to the rise of Greece and Rome, and to the collapse of the classical Mediterranean world.
Book Description
In recent years a startling policy innovation has emerged within global and domestic environmental governance: certification systems that promote socially responsible business practices by turning to the market, rather than the state, for rule-making authority. This book documents five cases in which the Forest Stewardship Council, a forest certification program backed by leading environmental groups, has competed with industry and landowner-sponsored certification systems for legitimacy.
The authors compare the politics behind forest certification in five countries. They reflect on why there are differences regionally, discuss the impact the Forest Stewardship Council has had on other certification programs, and assess the ability of private forest certification to address global forest deterioration.

Product Description
This book tells the story of the creation of the Universe, the creation of our solar system and the formation and development of plant and animal life on Earth, prehuman hominids and the eventual creation of our species, Homo sapiens, 200,000 years ago in East Africa. It offers analysis of the evidence as to the crop circles and their origins and as to extraterrestrial intelligent life in the cosmos. Creation reconciles creationism with science and the theory of evolution. Human beings are not descended from modern apes, but prehuman bipedal hominids were evolved by God from a common ancestor 7 million years ago. Although Darwin's fundamental thesis that all life shares common ancestors is correct, it does not follow that species originate from natural selection. The Universe really is 13.7 billion years old and commenced with the Big Bang. The Big Bang expansion is still ongoing and galaxies continue to rush away from each other. Earth really is 4.54 billion years old. But what caused the Big Bang? And what caused complex life to develop on Earth but nowhere else in this sun system? Why have the Martian Rovers uncovered no fossils or even a shellfish on Mars although oceans once covered that planet's surface? Why are three-quarters of the Earth's surface covered with water?

Dare to think.......2007-04-24
Dr. Umana's Creation: Towards a Theory of All Things, succeeds in doing what has not been done before -- reconciling creationism and intelligent design theory with portions of Charles Darwin's theory of evolution. This is a remarkable and original new book, which I encourage everyone to read, scientists and the general public alike. It is a new theory of biological evolution. Dr. Umana draws an important dichotomy in that he endorses, on the one hand, the theory of common descent of species from earlier species, showing that it is proved by the convergence of the sciences. But on the other hand, he shows that Darwinists' notion that new species emerge from natural selection - random or chance incremental mutations over millions of years - is unsubstantiated and refuted by modern microbiology. He demonstrates that the core idea of Darwinism, though an interesting theory in the 1800's, is bad science today. Something else is going on to explain the emergence of life and the origin of species. These are the big issues of our day in the evolution debate, and this is the book we have all been waiting for.
What that "something else" is has never been explained by any scientist or philosopher before Creation. This is the first real effort to show how biological evolution operates in the origin of new species and the emergence of life. Dr. Umana, while agreeing that natural selection is a true force of nature as demonstrated by microevolution (e.g., the development of bacteria to resistance to antibiotics), shows that natural selection cannot explain emergence of new species. One of the author's arguments that caught my attention focused on recent DNA studies as to the evolution of all dog breeds 15,000 years ago in East Asia from a single gene pool of a small group of gray wolves. Dogs in North America did not evolve from North American wolves. Likewise, European dogs did not evolve from European wolves. As Dr. Umana argues, how could this be if natural selection were the explanation for dog evolution? What happened to natural selection in North America or Europe? This latest genetic evidence, among other evidence, disproves Darwin's notion of `natural selection' as the supposed mechanism for the origin of species. This book also analyzes NASA's discoveries on Mars and on other bodies in our solar system to show that life does not just arise one day on its own. Why did life emerge on Earth 3.9 billion years ago, but not on Mars or anywhere else in our solar system? This book offers a new approach in answering these questions.
One of the most intriguing parts of this book is the author's marshalling of the latest NASA findings as to the Big Bang evolution of the cosmos (in his Chapter 1), as scientific evidence to support his theory of evolution. No one has ever analyzed the Big Bang like this before. He also analyzes the crop circle phenomenon, the spate of crop circles being formed all around the world each year, from the latest scientific evidence (Chapter 8), such as the higher germination rates of seeds taken from plants that are found within crop circle formations and the higher radiation levels discovered in crop circles after formation. He demonstrates that something is going on here that cannot be explained away by the supposition of human pranksters. He ties this latest scientific research in with his theory that life emerged not only on earth but elsewhere in the cosmos.
Nothing like this has been done before in terms of the breadth and scope of the scientific phenomena analyzed and explained. It presents the "Big Picture" as to the emergence of life and the origin of species as has never before been done.
Great Book!.......2005-12-23
