"I like all of Weisskopf’s books, but this autobiography above all—in particular the chapter called ‘Mozart and Quantum Mechanics,’ in which he compares the beauties and joys of music with those of mathematics and science."

Sci-fi writings have been the dreams and places of inspiration for scientists for years past and this book shows that Star Trek is no different. A look at the items from the show that have or are becoming science fact, this book is well presented and easy to navigate, it goes into depth on some of the more familiar elements from Gene Roddenberry's world. With many, many images to break up the science, this could almost be a coffee table book, definitely recommended.
