Don't Panic: Douglas Adams & the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy by Neil Gaiman, David K. Dickson, M.J. Simpson
'It's all absolutely devastatingly true -- except the bits that are lies' **Douglas Adams** *Don't Panic* celebrates the life of an ape-descended human called Douglas Adams who, in a field in Innsbruck in 1971, had an idea. This is also the story of what that idea became: *The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy* -- the original radio series which started it all, and the five book 'trilogy', the TV series, almost-film, computer game, towel and website that followed. Acclaimed author Neil Gaiman also tells the whole story of Liff, the Universe of Dick Gently, and everything else Douglas ever worked on, including his posthumous collection *The Salmon of Doubt*. As Douglas himself said, it is 'certainly the most outstandingly brilliant book to have been written about *The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy* since this morning.' **Completely updated, with a new foreword by Neil Gaiman** This description comes from the 2003 Titan Books edition.
