Then, in 1997, BBC Books launched two concurrent series of books, the <a href="/wiki/Eighth_Doctor_Adventures" title="Eighth Doctor Adventures">Eighth Doctor Adventures</a> (EDA) (featuring the <a href="/wiki/Eighth_Doctor" title="Eighth Doctor">then-current incarnation</a> of <a href="/wiki/Doctor_(Doctor_Who)" class="mw-redirect" title="Doctor (Doctor Who)">the Doctor</a>), and the <a href="/wiki/Past_Doctor_Adventures" title="Past Doctor Adventures">Past Doctor Adventures</a> (PDA), featuring the seven previous incarnations.
