5.0 out of 5 stars The first of the Dr. Who handbooks that started the series., 8 Dec 1998
By A Customer
Doctor Who - The Handbook: The Fourth Doctor is another entertaining read in the Doctor Who series of Handbooks. This volume focuses on the Tom Baker era from 1974 to 1981. As usual, the regular features of the handbooks are in this one: a focus on Tom Baker himself, a look at the character of the fourth Doctor, story summaries and reviews, rewriting the myth, a look at production development, the making of the story "The Brain of Morbius", etc. This book goes through 9 chapters of thoroughly researched material done by the authors trio of David J. Howe, Mark Stammers, and Stephen James Walker. This is an excellent piece of reference work on Doctor Who's most famous incarnation, The Fourth Doctor, from how Tom Baker defined the series to even how his departure from the show changed the series' future. The Tom Baker era made Doctor Who the large phenomenon it is today. People recognize Tom Baker as the definitive Doctor. This book is a terrific trip back to that time and reveals the behind-the-scenes development of the Doctor with the long scarf, curly hair with the big eyes and huge smile. Read it and enjoy reliving the Fourth Doctor's era. You won't regret it. Published in 1992 this was the very first volume in the Doctor Who Handbook series.
