        "The 'Star Wars: Visual Dictionary' is an essential guide to Episode One of the continuing Star Wars saga.  DK's renowned 'Eyewitness' style brings the characters, costumes, droids, and gadgetry of the Star Wars universe to life in astonishing visual detail.  Highly defined, annotated photography shows and explains the culture, background, and technology of this unfolding epic struggle between good and evil.  

        See the terrifying anatomy of Naboo sea monster, a wild podrace on Tatooine, and Battle Droids in combat.  Discover the finery of Queen Amidala's court, the Jedi's sacred beliefs, and the Neimoidians' bizarre customs and technology.  Explore the secrets of the Wheel Droids; the underwater world of Jar Jar; the Byzantine intrigue of Coruscant; see the new, digitally created cut-away views of C-3PO's photoreceptor eye, the inner workings of a battle droid's head, and Yoda's lightsaber; and much, much more!  

        Author David West Reynolds was given extensive access to the famed Lucasfilm archives at Skywalker Ranch in California.  Key objects from the movies have been re-photographed and even re-created by expert consultants from 'Industrial Light and Magic,' George Lucas's award-winning special-effects production company.  The result is a unique and fascinating reference work that reveals the characters and creatures of the new adventure as they appear nowhere else!  Together with the 'Star Wars Episode I: Incredible Cross Sections,' these books form a definitive Star Wars Episode I reference library."
