Industry Reviews

"This is the kind of book to keep with you when watching (or re-watching) the series and dipping into when you have an idle moment." -- Steven Silver's Reviews

"Who is the Doctor is a strong addition to the many volumes written about the new show, and one that, I suspect, will be referred to long after the more cerebral analyses have faded into oblivion." -- Sci-Fi Bulletin

"A thought-provoking and educational supplement to the first six series of the re-launched Doctor Who." -- Boomerocity.com

"This is one of the finer episode guides I have run across for any show, and highly recommend it for any fan of the ninth, tenth, or eleventh Doctor." -- BookGuys.ca

"Graeme and Robert have a talent that might be considered rare in TV criticism -- even when you don't agree with their assessments, they're never insulting about it, and they always explain themselves." -- Craig Byrne
