Ever get the feeling on your way to work that you're doing the same thing over and over each day?
You may just think you have a boring job - or you could be stuck in a Temporal Causality Loop.
This book will help you overcome such obstacles as these that you may encounter.

Fending off Mugato attacks - and if that doesn't work, how to counteract their venom.

How to recognise if you've ended up in a quantum parallel universe...and more.

Well written book, referencing some episodes of TOS, TNG, DS9 and VOY as "historical sidenotes" to the various sections. Interesting for ST fans.

Presented as an in-universe manual for members of Starfleet, this survival guide contains the tips and tricks that are used and forgotten at the plot demands of so many episodes. It's a fun read because it takes the in-universe premise seriously, giving instructions for everything from first contact to turning a phaser into a bomb.
If you're a fan of Star Trek you should give this a read.
