İ 1998: An insightful, irreverent, and sometimes hilarious look into the myth-making machinery behind the world's most enduring TV show. 1st edition, 1st printing:- Synopsis: Gene Roddenberry's 'Star Trek' is more than the century's most enduring TV show - it is a global empire and a prime example of what people mean when they say American culture is taking over the world. The Enterprise warps into light speed in Berlin, Tehran, and Tel Aviv. Pedestrians in Belfast shout 'Red Alert' when British troops grind down the streets. From 'The Weekly World News' to Salman Rushdie, from text-books on theoretical physics to reports of the Heaven's Gate followers, it's nearly impossible to open a newspaper without running into some reference to the show's science, lingo, or credo. Why is 'Star Trek' such a phenomenon? Because it's the first great mythology to be created in real time, by real people, for a global audience. From the NASA technicians who built the Mars rover to Tibetan ritual masters in Dharamsala, millions of people around the world have drawn inspiration from the original 'Star Trek' and its spin-offs. Captains James T Kirk and Jean-Luc Picard are popular in areas where no one has heard of Paul Bunyan or the Popol Vuh. The Enterprise itself may be the most famous vehicle since Noah's Ark:- Review(s): "'Future Perfect' is a fascinating account of a unique and heartwarming phenomenon. I was delighted to know that my intervention at a crucial moment saved 'Star Trek' - and probably changed the future history of the universe!" - Arthur C Clarke / "I loved this book! Jeff brings a unique perspective into even the most familiar material. His thoughtful insights are provocative; his prose is graceful, witty, and memorable. 'Future Perfect' kept me turning page after page until I'd devoured it all in one sitting. I predict this book will be very, very popular, not only with 'Star Trek' fans, but with anyone who has even a modicum of curiosity about the worldwide phenomenon that has endured for over thirty years" - Jeri Taylor, C0-creator of 'Star Trek: Voyager':- (original cost $23.95 (US) - £14.99 (UK)).
