If Crichton had no science in his writing, he still would be a popular writer with his abilities to build suspense, not just say this happened and than that happened. Crichton also has a scene of tremendous suspense, involving a little girl and a dinosaur. Several different sciences were beautifully explained. WHAT ABOUT THE FROGS The first half of this book is full of all that wonder I mentioned above. Crichton has probably launched many careers in science with his ability to show the wonder and magic of science. He was a rare kind of genius that could explain complex scientific concepts in an entertaining fun way to us laymen. DIET COKE SHAKEN, NOT STIRRED Crichton was a genius. ![]()
