And what a great one it is. This book was the only considerable document I could find for thorough research on Crichton and his thematic ideas presented in his various works. With one solid chapter for each book, no area was left uncovered.Up to date and extremely accurate. Recommeded 100% for Crichton fanatics and researchers alike.
