Constituting the largest reference work on "Doctor Who" ever
written, the six-volume "About Time" strives to become the ultimate
reference guide to the world's longest-running science fiction
program. Written by Lawrence Miles ("Faction Paradox") and
long-time sci-fi commentator Tat Wood, "About Time" focuses on the
continuity of "Doctor Who" (its characters, alien races and the
like), but also examines the show as a work of social commentary.
In particular, Miles and Wood dissect the politics and social
issues that shaped the show during its unprecedented 26-year run
(from 1963 to 1989), detailing how the issues of the day influenced
this series. As part of this grand opus, About Time 1 examines
"Doctor Who" Seasons 1 to 3 (1963 to 1966) -- the show's every
beginnings, with William Hartnell in the lead role. Among other
things, About Time 1 answers such vitally important "Who" questions
as "Where (and When) is Gallifrey?" and "Why Couldn't the BBC Just
Have Spent More Money?"
