I picked up a new Star Trek Book from Amazon.  It's really cool.

Star Trek the Visual Dictionary
The Ultimate guide to characters, aliens and technology

I thought about buying that book but after paging through it at B&N I decided there was not anything novel enough about it. I didn't see anything that would be new information or even pics I had not seen in other books and magazines over the years already. For now I'm only collecting fiction books unless I see something really unique like maybe an "Art of Star Trek Into Darkness" or making of...

Looks nice Rick.  Those are some clean pics in the book.  Cool little reference and the price isn't that much too (only about $12).

Yeah, I thought it would be a good way to introduce the concepts of the Star Trek Universe in one book to a friend or family member, plus it's always fun to look at!  :)

I picked this up at the Library. Leafed through it some but haven't read any of it yet.
