Summary

The questions: What mind-set is at the heart of the television series 'Stargate'?; and, What really goes into the creation of each episode? are examined in this anthology. Featuring essays from such noted contributors as archaeologist Sue Linder-Linsley, astronomer Sten Odenwald, parasitologist Francine M Terry, philosopher Daniel Dennett, and science fiction author Melanie A Fletcher, this collection delves into every aspect of the series with the same humour and intellectual curiosity of the show itself. Commentary from the show's special effects head, James Tichenor, and actor Tom McBeath is also featured.
