This book details the sector, with descriptions of many of the worlds, their governments, the vast corporations active there and the alien species that inhabit many of the systems. Besides basic planetary statistics detailing government types, population, atmosphere and much more there are short descriptions and multiple plot hooks spread throughout the book making it an invaluable aid to any Traveller campaign.
