The Doctor Who Technical Manual

Publisher's Summary
Ever since 1963, the Doctor has been fighting alien tyrants, vicious monsters and emotionless robots bent on cosmic domination. But it’s not only his hair-raising adventures that have made DOCTOR WHO the longest-running science fiction series in world television. It is also its endless array of marvellous machines.

 * Totally accurate plans and drawings at last reveal the inner workings of the DALEKS, of K-9, of the Doctor’s TOOL KIT, and dozens more.
 * Best of all there are the fullest possible plans for making your own model TARDIS!
 * This is the only book that opens the true world of the Time Lords to its readers. No friend of Doctor Who can afford to be without it!
