And as the Star Wars mythos continues to grow - in prequels and video games, on screen, in print, and beyond - these remarkable technical creations als multiply and evolve.

The New Essential Guide to Weapons and Technology is the fully updated and greatly expanded reference resource that organizes and explains every key class, make, and model of Star Wars munitions - from the smallest personal sidearms to the most devastating interplanetary superweapons - along with al host of other high-tech paraphernalia.

  • In-depth descriptions of more than 100 weapons and more than 100 additional devices used for defense, communication, survival, and security - including key technology featured in the films
