The volume analyses how a medium like the TV show, which firstly has to entertain a mass audience and serve a commercial purpose, could deal with a new discourse like the beginning of Second Wave Feminism in the USA during the 1960s, with a specific focus on Star Trek: The Original Series. Doing this it shows, from the view of an historian, how to deal with such a complex media text as a scientific source. The study mixes theories and methods from the media sciences with the classic procedure of the source analysis used in the science of history to answer questions regarding gender specific stereotypes, the objectifying of the female body, as well as the representation of female professions in the male dominated space.
