This is a completely revised and updated edition of the 1998 book The Encyclopedia Shatnerica, an irreverent A-to-Z encyclopedia covering all aspects of the life and career of actor William Shatner. Ten years since the publication of the original edition, William Shatner's mainstream popularity and cult status have skyrocketed. With two Emmys for his work on The Practice and Boston Legal, he's zoomed back onto (or close to) the A list. His campy Priceline commercials, spoken-word 'rock' albums, and increased exposure via such channels as TV Land and Comedy Central have only enhanced his hipster cachet as America's favourite bewigged, overacting pop-culture icon.
