About Terran Trade Authority:
The Terran Trade Authority is a science-fiction setting originally presented in a collection of four large illustrated science fiction books published between 1978 and 1980. This series was written by Stewart Cowley.
The books formed a connected space-opera milieu¸ describing the future history of mankind's expansion into the galaxy¸ presented in the guise of official handbooks by the trade organization from which the setting takes its name. However¸ the books sometimes contained contradictory information (e.g.¸ the nature of early FTL technology).
Compared to other science fiction settings¸ the TTA setting appears optimistic about man's place in the universe¸ though elements of violence and authoritarianism do appear in the books. It features a strong undercurrent of wonder and adventure¸ due in part to the inclusion of various mysterious alien relics and incidents that are left unexplained by the author.
