When Gene Roddenenberry created "Star Trek" he helped change popular entertainment. In 30 years the "Star Trek" phenomenon has grown into three hugely successful TV series, six feature films, and a multi-million dollar merchandising industry including over 100 novels. This biography reveals a contradictory and obsessive personality, a man who created a vision of the future in which personal conflicts, sexism and racism are eradicated and decency and rationalism prevail. This vision proved to have world-wide appeal, but Roddenberry himself was beset by many of the failings he wished to see eliminated.

Hardcover. Zustand: Very Good. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Very Good. 1st Uk Edition. Hardback. Tiny tear to top edge of inside cover. Foreword by D. C. Fontana. This book explores an unchartered region: the complex and contradictory man behind the Star trek phenomenon. This eye-opening biography full and frankly reveals Gene Roddenberry - whose success enabled him to claim mythic status himself - and provides the first substantiated behind-the-scenes story of how Star Trek got on the air, as well as why it went off. Included is a blow-by-blow description of the birth and development of Star Trek: The Next Generation. The story of his life can be viewed as the story of an Enterprise betrayed. In private, Roddenberry was a compsulsive womanizer, a fickle friend, and a heavy drinker. But he was also the ultimate story-teller, reinventing both himself and his past in order to create the persona in which the Star Trek audience so delighted. Illustrated. 283 pp. ( We carry a wide selection of titles in The Arts, Theology, History, Politics, Social and Physical Sciences. academic and scholarly books and Modern First Editions etc.).
