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 4 examines Doctor Who Seasons 12 to
17 (1975 to 1979)-starring Tom Baker, the actor who popularized the
show in America. Among other things, About Time 4 examines how the
show's Gothic horror phase and its aftermath, plus answers such
vitally important Who questions as Where (and When) is Gallifrey?
and Why Couldn't the BBC Just Have Spent More Money?
