Science of Star Wars An Astrophysicist's Independent Examination of Space Travel, Aliens, Pl... Book

Well, you can't blame a book for being written too soon.

Everything about this book is good from the concept to the research to the presentation of information. But despite its only being ten or so years old, so much of it is already invalid - we already have walking bipedal robots (see Asimo) and our understanding of much of physics is changing by the minute, as well as future-thinking perspectives on space travel.

But like I said, you can't blame a book for being written too soon. And even though the afterward does manage to squeeze in those god forsaken midi-chlorians, I'd recommend this book to any science-seeking Star Wars fan with the caveat that they do their own research as well since so much has changed since the book's publication.
