Terry Nation : the man who invented the Daleks

Turner, Alwyn W.2013
Books
The Daleks are one of the most iconic and fearsome creations in television history. Since their first appearance in 1963, they have simultaneously fascinated and terrified generations of children, their instant success ensuring, and sometimes eclipsing, that of Doctor Who. They sprang from the imagination of Terry Nation, a failed stand-up comic who became one of the most prolific writers for television that Britain has ever produced. Yet while the Daleks brought him notoriety and riches, Nation played a much wider role in British broadcasting's golden age.
