  • Notes: The Dalek Book was the first collection of original, printed stories set in the Doctor Who universe. Co-written by Dalek creator Terry Nation and series writer David Whitaker, the book contained information on the Daleks, as well as original stories and comic strips, a Dalek dictionary and a photo-story about Susan Foreman meeting the Daleks, featuring images from the 1963-64 serial The Daleks. None of the stories are individually credited, except where artwork is signed, who did what is a matter of speculation. It is believed that the book was largely written by David Whitaker.
