Summary from Backcover:

ONE SMALL STEP FOR MAN, ONE GIANT LEAP FOR MANKIND

"Quantum Leap" has been all Heart, Humor and History from the very first episode in 1989. It chronicles the amazing adventures of a quantum physicist, Sam Beckett, who, due to an experiment that goes awry, travels through time and the bodies of men, women, and even animals. The success of Quantum Leap has partly come from the appearances of Sam's mischievous aide Al, former astronaut and hologram. The series has won many prestigious awards and the actors Scott Bakula and Dean Stockwell have received numerous accolades.

The A-Z of Quantum Leap - The Official Publication of the Television Series contains everything you ever wanted to know about this phenomenal series in an easily accessible encyclopedic form, and includes:

a detailed reference guide to the names, places, people and events featured in the series

an alphabetical listing of episode titles

Sam leaps into Bobo the 'chimponaut'
