In this entertaining book, physics professor Lawrence Krauss looks at how the imaginary science of the 'Star Trek' universe stacks up against the real thing. There are impressively clear explanations of difficult concepts in information theory, quantum mechanics, particle physics, relativity, mechanics and cosmology. Krauss lists Star Trek's 10 silliest mistakes and speculates on the possibility of alien life.
