| Publisher Description: Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Though a Japanese form of animation, Anime has gained great prominence around the world. Series including "The Last Airbender, ' "Pokemon," and "Ghost in the Shell" have earned international fame and fandom, transforming a localized form of entertainment to an international phenomenon. This book examines both Anime and Manga, their history and some popular examples. Project Webster represents a new publishing paradigm, allowing disparate content sources to be curated into cohesive, relevant, and informative books. To date, this content has been curated from Wikipedia articles and images under Creative Commons licensing, although as Project Webster continues to increase in scope and dimension, more licensed and public domain content is being added. We believe books such as this represent a new and exciting lexicon in the sharing of human knowledge. |
