A comprehensive analysis of each adventure is provided, utilizing contemporary and retrospective reviews from diverse sources. Volume 1 focuses on the first three Doctors, portrayed by William Hartnell, Patrick Troughton, and Jon Pertwee.

It has been described as "the bible" by SFX magazine and praised for its thoroughness and balanced analysis of each story. The authors present a variety of opposing reviews, making the study of each episode genuinely interesting and indispensable for fans, especially regarding the Hartnell and Troughton eras, where many stories have become lost.
