Doctor Who: The Visual Dictionary mostly deals with the 2005 revival of the show, so any events and people in the show prior to that are most likely missing. However there is still a wealth of information contained in the book covering pretty much everybody and everything that has happened since the show was revived. This is definitely a must have if you're a Doctor Who fan.

This is a very gorgeous catalogue of the concepts of New Who; not much more to say about it except again to emphasise that it looks very nice.

http://nhw.livejournal.com/903592.html[return][return]Back in my day, we had to be satisfied with the almost-all-text The Making of Doctor Who. Kids these days can get this brilliant Dorling Kindersley illustrated book all about the Doctor, and featuring all the monsters from the first and second seasons, plus the Judoon (but nothing else from Season Three as far as I noticed). Perfect gift for the young Who fan; maybe also for the less young Who fan. (And one of the labelled components in the Tardis console room is the "mercury fluid link"!!!)

I want more information about the older doctors! I'll have to find other editions.

I got this, along with the character encyclopedia, for Christmas. The pictures were fantastic and the back stories and descriptions continue to amaze me.

Pretty much all new series, 10th and 11th doctors, poor forgotten number 9. I wished there was a little more about past doctors.

Great presentation and gorgeously done, but it ultimately kind of amounts to a rehash of the episodes in the new series. Fun for serious hardcore Dr. Who fans but I'm not so sure it really brought much to my experience of the series.
