This book is designed for avid Whovians. If you are not or have seen only a few episodes (mainly since the reboot) then a lot of the references will be lost on you. If something is mentioned, even once, it gets a notation in this encyclopedia. This makes for great fun for Whovians, not so much for people unfamiliar with the Doctor Who Universe. I love all the pictures throughout the book but wish that the author/editor could have bothered to put some sort of caption or reference to encyclopedia entry connecting the picture to the appropriate entry on the page. Most of them I could figure out but a few of them-mostly from the shorts and animated entries that I have not seen - I had no idea what the picture represented. That's my only critique of the book. I'm a huge Whovian so I am obviously part of the target audience and unlikely to be disappointed.
