Description

From the half-human Spock, to the "half-Borg" Seven of Nine, Star Trek is riven by inner conflicts--often unacknowledged. But it is only by examining these contradictions and paradoxes--the "doubleness" of Trek--that we can understand this popular TV/Film series. This book is a guided romp through Trek's alternative universes--individual episodes and films, the people behind Trek, and the unexpected implications of Trek's "double vision."
