Over the past 25 years George Lucas has been responsible for some of the most successful films made, for example "Indiana Jones" and "Star Wars". In recognition of his abilities, he was awarded the Irving Thalberg Award for Lifetime Achievement by the Academy of Motion Picture Arts in 1992. This book aims to examine and illustrate all the films Lucas has made, and all of the other projects he has been involved in. It looks at Industrial Light and Magic, his special effects company responsible for such films as "ET" and "Terminator II", Lucasfilm and LucasArts, two companies funded by profits from his work, which are dedicated to technical advances in projects as diverse as sound-editing and theme park rides. Behind-the-scenes photographs are also included.
