For 60 years Star Trek has made a phenomenal cultural impact. Now more popular than ever, the 'franchise' continues to have cultural, social, and political resonance around the world.
Star Trek has changed not just the way we look at space but also our own world. It gave the culture a lexicon of catchphrases, from "Beam me up, Scotty" to Dr McCoy's many complaints beginning "I'm a doctor, not a [...]!" Much of the 'future' technology depicted on Star Trek has come to feature in everyday life, from the communicator-like mobile phone to computer touch screens now taken for granted. Many of the world's most prominent scientists were inspired to pursue their careers (as were many writers and artists) due to an early exposure to Star Trek.
In Star Trek: 60 Years on the Final Frontier, expert Brian J Robb charts the rise of the show and explores its impact on our culture, from the first TV episode to the latest developments in the universe of Star Trek.
'This is a truly excellent history of Star Trek. Totally unauthorised, but author Brian J. Robb was managing editor of The Official Star Trek Magazine for over a decade, so he knows his stuff. Lots of facts, but also lots of thoughtful analysis. . . . speaking as a life-long Trek fan, this one is well worth reading.' - SF author Robert J. Sawyer
