This book was written in the early 1970's, before the Star Trek phenomenon really began to take off. At the time, Nimoy was trying to shed the typecast image of being Mr. Spock, hence the title of the book. I can remember him appearing on daytime television game shows and the subject came up. Therefore, this book is not a retrospective of his three years filming Star Trek the original series but a description of the years immediately after.

Wow, they've reprinted this? I have the original paperback from 1976! I was madly in love with Mr. Nimoy when I was a teenager, and this was icing on the cake. A fun read, especially the sections where Nimoy talks to his alter-ego Spock.

Everyone who is interested in his life and work and especially his life with that logical vulcan, should read this ... Read More

If you are here, and not at his newer biography then your question must be, should I own this one, the other, or both.
This is a difficult choice. This book is worth it to Star Trek fans for the nostalgia factor, yet many parts of it are lifted directly into "I Am Spock".
A note on the library binding, for those curious. In this case it refers to a cardboard binding, like a school yearbook. Imagine if instead of having a lsipcover, the book itself is glossy perhaps. It's nice, ... Read More
