I didn't feel, it lacks. If it was about a small book it would be ok but you are reviewing a 632p book. That makes it one of bigger rpg books in the market, if not the biggest. In this case it is not a lack of specifics, it's a lack of a simple overview of the book's content.

I meant to convey that the rules are quite comprehensive, include chapters on a variety of science fiction elements, and have a great deal of inspiring illustrations and helpful explanations.

The review does not convey that. You didn't mention what sci-elements are covered, for instance. There may be helpful explanations, but what do they explain? I can't figure it from the review.

Clearly I failed to do that in your case but I hope that doesn't stop you from considering the rules as a science fiction option

Unfortunately it doesn't comppel me to consider it either. And I completely fail to see how such a massive game book can work as an "introductory" product. Introductory products are usually simplifications, percolations, short. They introduce and then are complemented by more developped books that provide the specifics. 632 pages? That's not an introduction.
