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.
