Richard Connell does a fantastic job conveying the setting to make the reader perceive the Island as mysterious. On example of when he does this is this quote “Bleak darkness was blacking out the sea and jungle.” This quote sets the mood for a

“Sex, Drugs, Disasters, and the Extinction of Dinosaurs” is written by Stephen Jay Gould, professor of geology and zoology at Harvard. This essay is one of more than a hundred articles on evolution, zoology, and paleontology published by Gould in national magazines and journals. It tells about scientific proposals for the extinction of dinosaurs – a confusing but an exciting problem that humanity tries to solve. By analyzing and describing each of the claims for the reptiles’ demise – sex, drugs, and disasters – Gould differentiates bad science from good science and explains what makes some theories silly speculations, while the other, a testable hypothesis.

In the novel the main themes are; greed, science, and wisdom and knowledge. Wisdom and Knowledge, an example would be Grant’s knowledge that helped save himself and others from the velociraptors. In the laboratory there were lethal syringes, that scientist kept in case they ever needed to use to quickly kill a dinosaur. Knowing the raptors would try to eat the dinosaurs’ eggs, Grant injects several eggs. Due to his knowledge, he managed to get two out of three of the dinosaurs. Furthermore, another theme in the novel would be greed. Though Hammond’s park is shattered into pieces, he still believes that he should build another park. Not only that, but he believes that greed is “good”. Science, science is one of the biggest themes in the novel. For example, Malcolm’s predicting the downfall of the park with the use of chaos

I considered the novel Jurassic Park by Michael Crichton to be a “Great Read.” Jurassic Park is a novel about a group of people in an amusement park filled with genetically engineered dinosaurs after a major problem occurs in its system. Its theme, characters, plot, and climax all intrigued me and made me want to continue reading it. One such theme that interested me was that too much ambition can be dangerous. In the novel, the creators of both Jurassic Park and the dinosaurs there are far too ambitious. It is this ambition that leads to both their and the park’s downfall. The two most affected are John Hammond and Henry Wu. John Hammond wanted more dinosaurs and did not want to eliminate them when they because a clear and immense threat to anyone on the park. Henry Wu on the other hand, did not want to keep the dinosaurs the way they were. He wanted to make them seem more amazing and “improve” them. Their ambition blinded them from important details about the dinosaurs. Disaster would strike both them and the park. This clearly shows the reader how one should never have too much

In 1990, Universal Studios bought the rights of the novel, written by Michael Crichton, followed by the release of the movie adaption in 1993.

To create the unendurable suspense, Steven Spielberg has used different type of shots and angles, colours and light and acting, which all contributed to build the tension in the movie.

In an attempt to smuggle  dino embryos off of the island for personal greed, the island's unhappy computer specialist shuts down the park's defenses to escape.

On planet earth there are great numbers of different species that share similarities in appearance, structure, and behavior.

There were correlations between dinosaurs and other predators, lizards, and most interestingly birds.

After a worker in the beginning of the film is killed, Hammond recruits the minds of Dr Alan Grant, Ellie Sattler, and Dr Ian Malcolm, who are palaeontologists and theorists respectively. Once on the island they survey the park in all of its awe, before the parks security system is sabotaged and shut down by a rogue employee, Nedry, whom is bribed by a rival bioengineering company to steal dinosaur DNA. Working together after Nedry’s unknown demise, along with Hammond’s grandchildren, the group escape the island, flee its dangerous inhabitants, and decide “not endorse the

He describes it in such detail because he wants to describe the setting in a way that appeals to the reader. Opinions may vary, but when I read the first page I automatically thought of a place abundant in greenery and animals. Maybe even a forest with a running river. But then later on in the book he describes the setting in a very opposite manner.
