Doctor Who: Regeneration

Doctor Who: Regeneration was a Doctor Who book published by HarperCollins Publishers.
== Publisher's summary ==
In 1996, over nine million people in Britain alone tuned in to watch the rebirth of a legend — the Doctor Who film, starring Paul McGann as the eighth incarnation of BBC Television¹s famous Time Lord. As seen through the eyes of the only man who could tell it as it was — the film¹s executive producer, Philip Segal — Doctor Who-Regeneration offers a unique insight into television politics and the traumas of creating a whole new era for Doctor Who. Packed with behind-the-scenes accounts, this is the story of one man¹s struggle to bring one of the longest-running and most popular science fiction series of all time back to the television screens of the world.
With additional views from the director Geoffrey Sax and stars of the television movie itself, this is the most detailed exploration of a previously mysterious part of the Doctor Who universe.
