When a psychic shriek for help nearly overwhelms the TARDIS, The Doctor and Belinda track the source to a distant planet. There they find a sentient, telepathic bioship named Adama and ragged colonists descended from the original crew. Adama is dying, and their spectral screams are growing strong enough to kill anyone in the vicinity.
When Adama crashed 100 years ago, it was with a great treasure on board, stolen from the ruthless Gangnax Imperium — technology that could either unite worlds or destroy them. If they are to save the bioship, The Doctor and Belinda must survive suspicious colonists, greedy bounty hunters and military forces determined to reclaim what’s theirs — before Adama’s final death throes destroy them all.

A nostalgic journey through 60 years of the cult-favorite television series and its cultural impact.
For 60 years, viewers have seen the countless tangible, real-world, cultural implications and consequences of the plots and themes explored by the writers and showrunners of the long-running sci-fi series Doctor Who. Religion, politics, gender, autonomy, technology, the nature of good and evil, colonialism, sexuality, and many other themes have all been faced and explored, sometimes showing a powerful prescience, sometimes not. The writers and storylines did not always get it right, but this history shows the attempts by the show to move society forward.
Doctor Who: A Cultural History not only looks at the history of Doctor Who but also its global cultural impact. From its first airing in the immediate wake of the assassination of John F. Kennedy, Doctor Who has been a fascinating portal through which viewers observe changing times and standards. It tells the story of the central protagonist, the Doctor, but also of humanity. To understand the Doctor is to understand ourselves through the eyes of a stranger.
This book is perfectly balanced for avid fans who want to better understand the history and societal impact of their favorite show and for pop cultural/television scholars and historians. This book is an exploration of character development, political themes, and the power of a show to move society into the future.
