Adapting a book to a screenplay?

Adapting books to screenplays seems to have been popular for some time. Has anyone ever tried doing this? If so, what was the process you had to go through? (i.e. obtaining screen rights, etc.) If not, would you try it?

If anyone is interested in doing this, a good resource is the "Guides" section of this website. You'll find lots of useful information about rights and the process of adaptation.
