Summary: Thanks, Mr. Nimoy
Review: This book is really delicious. It's simultaneously communicative and intimate. I couldn't put it... It's the most honest book any actor has ever written.

Summary: A lovely book.
Review: This book has the same casual lightness that characterized the original series of StarTrek, it makes you laugh and it makes you think. It gives you an inside view of the making of the original StarTrek series and the films, and points out things you would never have thought of. If you go back and look at the original StarTrek episodes and films, you'll notice the book has changed your view of them.
This is the book you pull out on a rainy day, not a book you read fast and forget. With his casual style of writing, Nimoy manages to convey a feeling of presence, that he didn't just write this book, but put in a piece of himself with it, that will sit next to you and laugh with you when you read it.
In addition to clearing up the misconceptions of Nimoy-Spock, Nimoy also tells us about other characters he has played, other films he has directed, and what they meant to him. He asks if we would ever look at Spock and see him, and I think after this book, at least I will.

Summary: Highly Entertaining!
Review: Leonard Nimoy's autobiography on his life on the hit television series "Star Trek" is one of the best auto-biographies I have ever read. Nimoy gives the readers an exclusive "back-stage pass" and an interesting insight on the set. Has many funny moments and serious thoughts. His conversations with "Spock" is both funny and informative on what was going on.

Summary: A totally enjoyable read that made me wish it were longer!
Review: It's been said that Mr. Nimoy's book lacks the
"real dirt", the backstage problems, fights, etc.,
that seem to permeate similar "behind-the-scenes"
books. Well, the "real dirt" can be said to be in
the eye of the beholder. You won't find pages upon
pages of guttersniping because that's not what Nimoy is about. What is presented is a warm yet clear-eyed
vision of life behind Trek. He freely admits there
were ego conflicts and strained relationships yet
he does so without casting blame or condemnation. As
I read the book, I felt as if it were the closest
"objective" perspective possible (for someone who
was part of it all) that I've come across, moreso
than most of the other "inside Trek" books that seem to scream out "it was the other guy's fault."
I've always considered Nimoy to be a man of
integrity; this book bears out that impression. If
what you're really interested in are anecdotes about
the Trek series, the movies, and Leonard's non-Trek
work combined with a sense of there being two
authors (Nimoy and Spock!), then I heartily recommend this book.

Summary: Thought-provoking & hilarious.
Review: I opened this book expecting to read a continuation of _I_Am_Not_Spock_, one of Nimoy's earlier books, and was pleasantly surprised. This book made me screech with laughter and occasionally blow my nose. Nimoy's version of the "hide Leonard's bike" incident is priceless. He shows a darker side of Star Trek too, mentioning Gene Roddenberry without the halo he seems to have picked up in the last thirty or so years

Summary: It was funny, it was heartwarming
Review: I AM NOT SPOCK was one of the hardest books for me to find. But it was worth the wait. I realy liked the dialogue between Leonard and Spock, and how Spock kept stealing the pens from the producion company and Leonard was asked about.
How Leonard was lost at first without Spock, but, Spock was never really gone. Mr Nimoy also talked about how Spock almost took over his entire life while filming Star Trek.
Over all, its a great book. I read it several times.

Summary: You are Spock!
Review: Mr Nimoy is a highly talented individual in multiple aspects. I started liking his work even before I became a fan of Star Trek (3 man and a baby for example). In this book he is funny and full of "behind the scene" anecdotes, which were all presented in a "true-but-gentle" manner, and never any finger pointing accusation of anyone or anything. He is one of the few people I can envision beyond Star Trek and not wonder what is "Spock" doing in something completely irrelevant, although of course Mr Spock will always be my favourite character. I really enjoyed the book, and am now very curious to read the first book "I am not Spock"

Summary: "Fascinating" book on Nimoy's life after the original series
Review: Can't the guy make up his mind? Last time it was "I Am Not Spock!" Seriously, this is an autobiographical memoir of Nimoy's life, though focusing very closely and intently on his years with Star Trek. It goes into particular detail on the movies and especially the two that he directed. It makes for an interesting read, though the imagined dialogues with Spock are a little odd. His takes on the movies are particularly interesting, as he honestly gauges their successes and failures: ST:TMP all special effects, finished in a rush in order to be released on December 7. ST II a good success, ST III good but more of a connect-the-dots effort, ST IV perhaps the most successful of all the movies, ST V a failure but due to the script rather than the Shatner's direction, ST VI a substandard but adequate conclusion. He goes on to discuss other movies he directed, most notably Three Men and a Baby, though a couple of other, more obscure ones, as well. In the end, it seems, he is at peace with this second character inside his head. Despite its egocentric aspects, this is a - dare I say - fascinating book and a good read.

Summary: A gentleman's review of a "fascinating" life.
Review: Leonard Nimoy's Star Trek tales are gentler, more forgiving versions of the stories told by William Shatner in the Shatner "Memories" books. "I Am Spock" is an entertainging piece, perhaps a bit 'jumpy' in places, flashing forward and backward between Star Trek events and Nimoy's other works, and repeats much of the tales in his earlier book - but it was difficult for me to find much fault with this volume. What I did find interesting was that, while Mr. Shatner's stories often show Mr. Nimoy as a tough businessman, with the "f"-word peppering his direct quotes, the Mr. Nimoy in "I Am Spock" seems more reserved and gentlemanly. Which is the truer? No matter. Mr. Nimoy's modesty shines softly throughout this book. He's obviously very (multi) talented in all facets of his art, and it's a pity the original Star Trek series didn't extend him the opportunity to direct, or create, or produce as he did in later years - then the Enterprise would have definitely fulfilled its 5-year mission, rather than only 3. Bottom Line: A good read, especially for the Star Trek / Nimoy / Spock fan - but don't expect anything intringing, new, or shocking. This is the grandfatherly Nimoy talking, and his memories all seem to be fond ones.

Summary: I get this sense of deja'vu
Review: If you have have been a fan of Star Trek and Mr. Nimoy in particular and have read his previous autobiographical outing "I Am Not Spock" you will be sorely disappointed with this latest venture. I was stunned to see entire passages and many anecdotes lifted almost verbatim from the previous work with very little original material added. I have to applaud Mr. Nimoy on his commitment to recycling; a good 80% of his material has appeared not only in his previous book but in just about every interview and article he has done. For someone just now getting acquainted with Mr. Nimoy and the Trek phenomenon, all this would be new and fascinating but for the long time devotee eagerly awaiting the publishing of a "new" book....short changed is the term that comes to mind. Also, for a biography, there is very little personal material. I can understand not wanting to hang your dirty laundry out for the world to see. But since the publication of his first book, Mr. Nimoy has divorced, remarried, lost two parents, had a bout with alcoholism, worked under the direction of his son for an Outer Limits episode...these are the peaks and valleys that make up fully lived lives and amazing emotional journeys that grips a reader. We share none of this with Nimoy. He even casually omits his first wife's name from the identical anecdotes he rehashes. In many ways, he truly is Spock in eschewing the emotional and human. Stick with the tried and true "behind the scenes" tidbits despite having worn them very thin from repeated use and hope the novice reader finds them "fascinating."
