Description

Ryan Britt charts a course through Star Trek history, illuminating the bold choices that have allowed Star Trek to help shape the world that watched it, including stories about making history with LGBTQ representation, the sequence of decisions that turned Spock from a red devil to the personification of logical empathy, the significance of the Starfleet uniforms, Star Trek's surprising history with fan outrage, and more. Including extensive interviews with Star Trek: Picard showrunner Michael Chabon, and actors William Shatner and Jonathan Frakes, Ryan Britt has all the right access and the right connections to publish a definitive yet totally modern book on what Star Trek means today.
