Women Take the Conn: An Unauthorized Star Trek Essay Collection by Women Writers - 2950

THE FINAL FRONTIER IS HERE…AND IT’S FEMALE Star Trek (1966–1969) boldly went where no television series had ever gone before, advancing the story of women at a crucial time in history, and placing female characters at the forefront of the USS Enterprise’s missions. In so doing, the show told the tales of a vast galaxy of women in infinite diversity and infinite combinations… In Women Take the Conn, editors Summer Brooks and Rich Handley have assembled an all-female crew of writers to examine and illuminate the groundbreaking women of the final frontier in thoughtful, thought-provoking, and thoroughly engaging essays. They’re all here, from Starfleet’s finest—Uhura, Chapel, Saavik, and Ilia—to the brave and bold Miramanee, Edith Keeler, Zarabeth, Carol Marcus, and many more…to the edge of the galaxy and beyond. Featuring a foreword by Jacqueline Lichtenberg, as well as essays by Rigel Ailur, Lorraine J. Anderson, Corinna Bechko, Nancy A.
