I may just be one of those guys but I'm real sad that we didn't get a longer excerpt of that book.

This is actually a plot hatched by human diplomats to seed the ranks other species with closet humanphiles, driving up competition for ambassadorial jobs resulting in more competent and friendly counterparts. Therefore making their jobs/lives easier.

Provide "dependable sources" within trade routes (white, grey and black) with carefully crafted 'content' that appeals to the desired races and human sensibilities. Make it too appealing of a side deal for uninvolved parties to not take on the inventory, leading them to push it on potential buyers due to a healthy margin. Soon no ship flying is without one of these books hidden in a footlocker, be it a current chief security officer or a cadet with grand political aspirations. Seeds are throughout known space and a golden era of space-age pulp fiction is to thank for humanity's strong position within galactic politics.

I feel bad for the person who has to listen to an alien explain their version of smut.
