''Mr. Scott's Guide to the Enterprise'', written and illustrated by Shane Johnson and published by Pocket Books, is a book describing the post-refit USS ''Enterprise'' (with some information on the ''Enterprise''-A) from the Star Trek fictional universe. It is written from the viewpoint of the ship's chief engineer, Montgomery Scott. The manual was first printed in 1987. The ''Guide'' opens with a brief introduction by Mr. Scott and a description of the ''Constitution'' class refit. Following this, a chapter on general information, containing such data as Starfleet uniforms of the era, fonts used in computer displays and hull markings, and various graphics used aboard the ship. It goes on to describe the ''Enterprise'' deck by deck from the top downward and concludes with a description of the ''Enterprise''-A. Although ''Star Trek'' staffers such as Michael Okuda and Andrew Probert served as consultants for the book, it contains statements that were later contradicted. The book indicates that the ''Enterprise'' The description of transwarp drive and other technologies are different from, if not outright incompatible with, later descriptions. Some of these contradictions stem from the book's use of some ''Star Trek'' role-playing game source materials, particularly the chronology, based on the earlier ''Star Trek Spaceflight Chronology''. Due to interference from Roddenberry's assistant/gofer Richard Arnold, Paramount revoked FASA's license soon after the book was published and at Arnold's urging began to contradict FASA's material early in ''Star Trek: The Next Generations run. However, Johnson also had access to set designs and production schematics that were used to create many places and devices that appear in the ''Star Trek'' films. This material largely informed the book's detailed schematics of decks, compartments, and equipment. ==References== 〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Mr. Scott's Guide to the Enterprise」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
