This book was released on 2014-07-15 with total page 252 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When the first season of Star Trek opened to American television viewers in 1966, the thematically insightful sci-fi story line presented audiences with the exciting vision of a bold voyage into the final frontiers of space and strange, new galactic worlds. Perpetuating this enchanting vision, the story has become one of the longest running and most multifaceted franchises in television history. Moreover, it has presented an inspiring message for the future, addressing everything from social, political, philosophical, and ethical issues to progressive and humanist representations of race, gender, and class. This book contends that Star Trek is not just a set of television series, but has become a pervasive part of the identity of the millions of people who watch, read and consume the films, television episodes, network specials, novelizations, and fan stories. Examining Star Trek from various critical angles, the essays in this collection provide vital new insights into the myriad ways that the franchise has affected the culture it represents, the people who watch the series, and the industry that created it.

Download or read book Star Trek written by Robert Greenberger and published by Voyageur Press (MN). This book was released on 2012-11-08 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the first book to combine an authoritative history of the Star Trek franchise—including all six television series and eleven feature films—with anecdotes about the show from those who helped shape it from the outside in: the fans. Star Trek expert Robert Greenberger covers everything from show creator Gene Roddenberry’s initial plans for a series combining science-fiction and Western elements, the premiere of the original series in 1966, its cancellation, the franchise’s return in an animated series, and its subsequent history on television and film, up to expectations for the 2013 J.J. Abrams film. Along the way, Greenberger analyzes Star Trek’s unique cultural impact and tremendous cult following, including the famous (and first ever) save-the-show mail campaign. But this isn't a sugarcoated history; this book chronicles the missteps as well as the achievements of Roddenberry and others behind the franchise. Approximately two dozen sidebars provide personal experiences of dedicated Trekkies who influenced or became a part of the franchise. Star Trek fandom is unparalleled in the effects it has had on the franchise itself. The book is illustrated with a large collection of photographs of memorabilia, many of which have never been seen before in print.

This book was released on 2008-08-12 with total page 513 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It's been said that for any event, there are an infinite number of possible outcomes. Our choices determine which outcome will follow, and therefore all possibilities that could happen do happen across countless alternate realities. In these divergent realms, known history is bent, like white light through a prism -- broken into a boundless spectrum of what-might-have-beens. But in those myriad universes, what might have been...is what actually happened. THE CHIMES AT MIDNIGHT: In a continuum where Spock died during childhood, an Andorian named Thelin became Captain Kirk's stalwart friend and first officer. But at the moment of Khan's final defeat, history takes an even stranger turn, and the emerging potential of Project Genesis is revealed as the galaxy's greatest hope...and its most ominous threat. A GUTTED WORLD: Terrorist Kira Nerys -- from a Bajor that was never liberated -- may hold the key to winning a war that has engulfed half the galaxy. But with the Romulans and the Klingons at each other's throats, and the Federation pulled into the conflict, even victory may not bring salvation. BRAVE NEW WORLD: Dr. Noonien Soong's dream has been realized: androids are now woven inextricably into the fabric of the Federation, revolutionizing Starfleet and transforming the quality of humanoid life. But when Soong's long-missing breakthrough creation, Data, mysteriously resurfaces, civilization reaches a crossroads that could lead to a bright new future, or to ruin.

Book excerpt: Twelve-year old Levy Roarke has always dreamt that one of his inventions would help him make history. He never imagined his Fizz-E-Drive would actually change history by altering the very fabric of the timeline. Levy is introduced to a world where Adolf Hitler was not an evil dictator, but a world-renowned artist. George Washington was a motivational speaker, Joan of Arc, a devoted housewife, and Teddy Roosevelt's greatest expedition took him to the red planet of Mars. This is all the doing of Mr. Cross, time traveler extraordinaire, who is painting a better future by altering the past, one historical figure at a time.As Levy tries to understand his role in this reboot of history, he befriends the childhood versions of his favorite heroes: Thomas Edison, Annie Oakley, and Martin Luther King Jr. Toss in a pair of time- traveling saboteurs, a quirky security dinosaur named Plato, and trigger an echo in the space/time continuum, and you have pretty much summed up Levy's week. The truth is no matter how this story turns out, no one will ever look at history the same again.Chronolocity Vol. I A Fistful of Chronotons is a Historical Science Fiction Middle Grade novel. It is the first of six volumes in the Chronolocity Hexatron. GPA is currently working on the second installment Chronolocity Vol II. How the West was Xrossed.
