Pocket Essentials is a dynamic series of books that are brief, lively, and easy <br />
to read. Packed with facts as well as expert opinions, each book has all the key <br />
information you need to know about such popular topics as film, television, cult <br />
fiction, history, and more. In addition to an introduction to the subject, each <br />
topic is individually analyzed and reviewed, examining its impact on culture or <br />
history. There is also a reference section that lists related web sites and <br />
weightier (and more expensive) books on the subject. For media buffs, students, <br />
and inquiring minds, these are great entry–level books that build into an <br />
essential library. <br />
