At the height of the 1970s energy crisis, America's most irreverent satirical institution turned its uniquely unhinged lens on one of the decade's most pressing issues — and the result is as absurd as it is incisive. MAD Leads the Fight to Conserve Energy is a collection of sharp, anarchic commentary delivered through the magazine's signature blend of parody, cartoons, and biting wit, lampooning politicians, corporations, and everyday citizens alike in their collective fumbling of the energy problem. True to MAD's storied tradition of puncturing pomposity and speaking uncomfortable truths through laughter, this collection presents a razor-sharp critique of consumerism and governmental ineptitude wrapped in gloriously chaotic illustrations. The rotating cast of MAD's legendary contributors — the self-described usual gang of idiots — illustrates just how little has changed in the grand theatre of public policy failures, leaving the reader simultaneously in stitches and unsettlingly reflective about the state of the world.
