Publisher's summary

Best known to the world as the actor who created the legendary Mr. Spock in the cult television series that launched the Star Trek phenomenon, Leonard Nimoy has written the definitive Star Trek memoir. In this long-awaited autobiography, Nimoy opens up to his fans in ways the Vulcan never could.

Having played the pivotal role of Mr. Spock in the original series, in six motion pictures, and in a special two-part episode of Star Trek: The Next Generation, as well as having directed two of the movies, Nimoy is well suited to tell the true story behind what was seen by the public. He provides an intelligent and insightful book about the creative process and the actor's craft - and gives his own unique insider's view of the creation of both the character, Mr. Spock, and the Star Trek phenomenon.

Best book I ever read or listened to!

Nimoy was genius and I will always use this book as a grounding device to relax me and propel my imagination back to the Star Trek days. I love his narrative of using Spock as his alter ego. Nimoy will always be a Master to me.

in the halls of Mount Selaya

Listening to Leonard Nimoy speak about his relationship with a deathless character is almost like communing with Spock's katra. I will always remember the possibilities of intelligence and self-control and dignity epitomized by both the actor and his creation.

Great recap of the most beloved SiFi character of all time.

Loved the dialog between Nimoy and Spock. I just wish it was a bit longer. At the end I wanted more.
