Trade review
Published to coincide with the new series, this covers everything from how Daleks climb stairs to regenerating like the Time Lord. Foreword by Arthur C. Clarke, it describes the cutting edge science behind our favourite sci-fi series and explains the medical truth behind the Doctor's two hearts.
Synopsis
Covers topics ranging from how Daleks climb stairs to regenerating like the Time Lord. This work also shows you: why time travel isn't ruled out by the laws of physics; the real K-9 - the robot assistant for space travellers built by NASA; and how Dalek-like designer lifeforms are being bred by genetic engineering.
