"This book is the story of a television script, where it came from, how it was written, how it was eventually filmed and finally got onto the air as an episode of Star Trek.

"David Gerrold, born in 1944, is an American science fiction author and screenwriter. He gained fame for his script for the original "Star Trek" episode "The Trouble with Tribbles." Gerrold's contributions to the Star Trek universe extend beyond this iconic episode, as he wrote several other scripts and contributed to the animated series. In addition to his work on Star Trek, Gerrold has written numerous novels and short stories. His "War Against the Chtorr" series, an ongoing, post-apocalyptic narrative about an alien invasion of Earth, is among his most popular works. Gerrold's semi-autobiographical novel "The Martian Child" won both the Hugo and Nebula awards and was adapted into a film. Gerrold's writing often explores complex themes such as sexuality, war, and the nature of civilization, and he is known for his engaging storytelling and well-developed characters."—Bing
