== Background information ==
*While the book's title and the publisher's website summary imply that the book predominantly focuses on ship and station designs created for Star Trek: Deep Space Nine, this material actually only takes up about half of the content.

*Considering John Eaves' central position as the lead ship designer for the last four seasons of Deep Space Nine, the Next Generation films, and Enterprise, his work predictably makes up half of the book's contents.
*The new material included in the book was largely composed of pictorial material that had been made available to the authors (often by former production staffers) following the release of the constituent Collection issues. As with similar material for the preceding volumes in the series, Robinson had already shared much of this imagery with his Twitter followers, prior to the book's publication.
