About Time 5
(2005)The Unauthorized Guide to Doctor Who
A non fiction book by Lawrence Miles and Tat Wood
"About Time" serves as the definitive (albeit unofficial) guide to "Doctor Who" Seasons 18 to 21, the end of Tom Baker's time with the show, the whole of the Peter Davison era, and the introduction of Colin Baker as the Doctor.
Written by Lawrence Miles (Faction Paradox) and Tat Wood (SFX, TV Zone), About Time not only examines the usual continuity concerns (alien races, etc.) in bursting detail, but looks at how the political / social issues of the early 1980s affected the show's production. Essays in this volume include: "Why are there So Many Duplicates in the Universe?", "What is the Blinovitch Limitation Effect?", and "How Does Regeneration Work?"
