Publisher's Comments Regarding Copyright and Trademark

We sell the Star Trek Bartender's Guide and Snack Book. Some folks have given the author some flak over it because it carries the name "Star Trek." But since "Star Trek" is not copyrightable there is no problem with the name. Although the book is directly referent to Star Trek, (the author provided recipes for all sorts of Star Trek drinks) what he has done is use references in the show for a jumping off place in creating his bar guide. (The book includes recipes for Plomik Soup, Romulan's Revenge snack, Warpdrive, etc., and it is a highly popular item.) Art is also classified as being creative work,­ after all, who are we to question the way an artist sees a scene or character? [1]
