Who better to teach us mindfulness and wisdom than Mr. Spock, that beacon of calm, rational thought. With quotes from STAR TREK and timely insights about modern life this book will be your guide. In a universe that seems to have gone mad, we turn to mindfulness to restore sanity. When humanity has lost its way, it takes a Vulcan to raise an eyebrow at our folly and lead us towards the truth. After all, it's only logical...

When the world seems out if its mind, a little Vulcan mindfulness
can be just the salve - I adore this adorable book.
- Bryan Fuller, co-creator of Star Trek: Discovery
Mr Spock's Little Book of Mindfulness is one of those volumes
that sticks in your mind and not just for the title. It can be
a little whimsical in its narrative at times but the whole is such
an engaging read with real love for the franchise permeating every
page and word because Dakin manages to balance the line of
keeping it tonally light while both honouring the legacy and poking
that little bit of fun at the franchise with the twists and
turns woven into Spock's story - for continuity fans you'll have a
whale of a time I have no doubt.
- Star Trek Club Stoke on Kent
From the inside cover
This book is a light-hearted exploration of the wisdom of Mr. Spock
from the STAR TREK TV show and is not intended as a serious guide
to mindfulness.
Unless you are half-Vulcan already, it will not enable you to
overcome your emotional side, any more than it will teach you how
to perform the Vulcan nerve pinch or mind-meld with a rock
creature. As a look at human life from an alien point of view it
may serve as a mildly helpful and occasionally amusing
perspective.
To expect to achieve true enlightenment from a book of TV quotes
and cartoons is not logical.
