The Forgotten James Bond
The James Bond franchise has flourished for over six decades, and in the process shaped pop culture in manifold ways, from the image of the spy to the conventions of the action film. Yet, well-known as James Bond is, a very great deal about the series as it was originally conceived, from the self-parody in the original Ian Fleming novels, to the places some of the most and least-praised Bond films hold in cinematic history, to the various ways the authors of the continuation novels have handled the adventures, are now remembered only vaguely, or not at all. THE FORGOTTEN JAMES BOND takes all these and more for its subject, concentrating not on the James Bond everyone knows, but the James Bond fans and critics tend to overlook.
The Five Secrets of James Bond
To unravel the mysteries of his majesty's faithful secret agent, Alyosha Wald Lasowski uses the best techniques of current decoding. From gender studies to postcolonial thought, from popular culture to geopolitics, the author lays bare the mysteries encodedin the twenty-five Bond films. Lasowski even goes so far as to invent the “philoscopic approach,” which lays bare what seems invisible on the screen. From Doctor No in 1962 to No Time to Die in 2021, The Five Secrets of James Bond brings an unusual approach that shows the most famous secret agent in a different light. Alyosha Wald Lasowski is a university professor and teaches political philosophy at Sciences-Po, Lille, in the Master's...

The controversial conversions of this study challenge many of our accepted ideas about the period.
LIFE Bond. James Bond
No name is more synonymous with suave sophistication and danger than James Bond. And no actor filled the spy's black calf oxfords more often-or with quite the eyebrow-up charm-than the late Roger Moore. Witty and stylish, Moore, who died in May 2017, embodied the spirit of Ian Fleming's globe-trotting secret agent in Live and Let Die, The Spy Who Loved Me, and five other 007 classics. In LIFE Bond. James Bond we pay tribute to this iconic star and all of the agents who came before and after him-the seminal Sean Connery, George Lazenby, Timothy Dalton, Pierce Brosnan, and Daniel Craig. A special section on the history of the Bond franchise provides rare photographs from on the set and off and yields inside intelligence on each film's behind-the-scenes politics, business deals, and casting calls. Plus: an essay by TIME's acclaimed film and culture critic Richard Corliss examines how Bond reflects and influences the world at large. No matter who your favorite 007 is or which 007 film you like the best, LIFE Bond. James Bond delivers.

It examines the way in which postwar German courts dealt with these criminals by an in-depth study of the trial sentences against two specific groups of genocidal perpetrators: the `Euthanasia' and `Aktion Reinhard' kill...
James Bond's Evolution
Just what inspired Ian Fleming's original James Bond novels? What exactly did they do to lay the foundations for the classic Bond films of the '60s-and how did the films break with the books? How did EON Productions manage to keep audiences coming back for decades? What really changed in the reboot-and what stayed the same? How do the later Bond novels of writers like John Gardner and William Boyd fit into the bigger picture? JAMES BOND'S EVOLUTION: FROM CASINO ROYALE TO SPECTRE looks at all these questions and more in a study not just of the novels or the films but both which traces the broader Bond phenomenon from its origins in post-World War II Britain to the present. In doing so it looks not just at where it all came from, but how the Bond films and books were transformed time and again to stay popular through six tumultuous decades of political and cultural change.
