From the first full-fledged review of his screen debut in November 1928 to the present day, Mickey Mouse has won millions of fans and charmed even the harshest of critics. Almost half of the eighty-one texts in A Mickey Mouse Reader document the Mouse's rise to glory from that first cartoon, Steamboat Willie, through his seventh year when his first color animation, The Band Concert, was released. They include two important early critiques, one by the American culture critic Gilbert Seldes and one by the famed English novelist E. M. Forster.Articles and essays chronicle the continued rise of Mickey Mouse to the rank of true icon. He remains arguably the most vivid graphic expression to date of key traits of the American character--pluck, cheerfulness, innocence, energy, and fidelity to family and friends. Among press reports in the book is one from June 1944 that puts to rest the urban legend that "Mickey Mouse" was a password or code word on D-Day. It was, however, the password for a major pre-invasion briefing.Other items illuminate the origins of "Mickey Mouse" as a term for things deemed petty or unsophisticated. One piece explains how Walt and brother Roy Disney, almost single-handedly, invented the strategy of corporate synergy by tagging sales of Mickey Mouse toys and goods to the release of Mickey's latest cartoons shorts. In two especially interesting essays, Maurice Sendak and John Updike look back over the years and give their personal reflections on the character they loved as boys growing up in the 1930's"--$cProvided by publisher. 410 0$aUPCC book collections on Project MUSE. 606 $aMickey Mouse (Fictitious character) 606 $aMickey Mouse (Fictitious character) in mass media 606 $aPopular culture$zUnited States 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aMickey Mouse (Fictitious character) 615 0$aMickey Mouse (Fictitious character) in mass media. 615 0$aPopular culture 676 $a791.43/75 702 $aApgar$b Garry 702 $aBenjamin$b Walter 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910463673903321 996 $aA Mickey Mouse reader$91994337 997 $aUNINA LEADER 03984nam 22007692 450 001 9910779346103321 005 20151005020622.0 010 $a1-139-85399-6 010 $a1-107-23543-X 010 $a1-139-08841-6 010 $a1-139-84017-7 010 $a1-139-84586-1 010 $a1-139-84255-2 010 $a1-139-84491-1 010 $a1-283-74662-X 010 $a1-139-84136-X 035 $a(CKB)2550000000708512 035 $a(EBL)1057510 035 $a(OCoLC)817706457 035 $a(SSID)ssj0000755730 035 $a(PQKBManifestationID)11393165 035 $a(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000755730 035 $a(PQKBWorkID)10730551 035 $a(PQKB)11303706 035 $a(UkCbUP)CR9781139088411 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC1057510 035 $a(Au-PeEL)EBL1057510 035 $a(CaPaEBR)ebr10621717 035 $a(CaONFJC)MIL405912 035 $a(PPN)261286692 035 $a(EXLCZ)992550000000708512 100 $a20110519d2012|||| uy| 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aur||||||||||| 181 $ctxt$2rdacontent 182 $cc$2rdamedia 183 $acr$2rdacarrier 200 10$aFloods in a changing climate$iInundation modelling /$fGiuliano Di Baldassarre, UNESCO-IHE Institute for Water Education$b[electronic resource] 210 1$aCambridge :$cCambridge University Press,$d2012. 215 $a1 online resource (xiv, 105 pages) $cdigital, PDF file(s) 225 1 $aInternational hydrology series 300 $aTitle from publisher's bibliographic system (viewed on 05 Oct 2015). 311 $a1-108-44675-2 311 $a1-107-01875-7 320 $aIncludes bibliographical references and index. 327 $aMachine generated contents note: List of contributors; Foreword; Preface; 1.

This book provides an understanding of hydraulic modelling and floodplain dynamics, with a key focus on state-of-the-art remote sensing data, and methods to estimate and communicate uncertainty. Academic researchers in the fields of hydrology, climate change, environmental science and natural hazards, and professionals and policy-makers working in flood risk mitigation, hydraulic engineering and remote sensing will find this an invaluable resource. This volume is the third in a collection of four books on flood disaster management theory and practice within the context of anthropogenic climate change. The others are: Floods in a Changing Climate: Extreme Precipitation by Ramesh Teegavarapu, Floods in a Changing Climate: Hydrological Modeling by P. P. Mujumdar and D.
