This review is from: Starfleet Dynamics: A Starfleet Academy Reference Guide & Textbook (25th Anniversary Collector's Edition, ST VI: TUC, Stardate 9200) (Paperback)

This manual was written before star trek the next generation and they were accurate with some of it such as the details on the appearance of the ships they also got quite a bit wrong with it. They filled in the blanks on physics that wasn't yet invented for the show. Example in the official manuals written by the crew of the television show "Star Trek the Next Generation" they talk about the ship generating subspace fields in order to submerge the mass of the ship so that slippage into faster than light may occur. While those who wrote this book talk about Hyperspace when talking about the faster than light space travel, as well as saying that trans warp being successful. If your a big fan of the series get it otherwise you won't enjoy it.
