The dinosaur is back on earth—alive, now. in Michael Crichton's Jurassic Park.
The story, told with an almost documentary verisimilitude, is an account of the attempt, through a hair-raising twenty-four hours on a remote jungle island, to avert a global emergency—a crisis triggered by today's headlong rush (virtually unchecked by any government or scientific watchdogs) to commercialize genetic engineering.

The dinosaur is back on earth—alive, now. in Michael Crichton's Jurassic Park.
The story, told with an almost documentary verisimilitude, is an account of the attempt, through a hair-raising twenty-four hours on a remote jungle island, to avert a global emergency—a crisis triggered by today's headlong rush (virtually unchecked by any government or scientific watchdogs) to commercialize genetic engineering.
In Jurassic Park, Crichton makes brilliant and mesmerizing use of the unique amalgam of suspense and informed science (this time paleontology, biotechnology, and chaos theory) that he originated in The Andromeda Strain. Of all his superb scientific thrillers— all of them best-sellers—Jurassic Park is in every way the strongest. It is certain to be his most widely read, talked about, and unreservedly enjoyed novel to date.

Un gran thriller, además de que los diálogos de Ian Malcom sobre la soberbia de las personas, la ciencia, el capitalismo y la teoría del caos son una verdadera joya y siguen estando muy vigentes hoy en día, aunque nuestros grandes avances hayan resultado en la creación de Inteligencias Artificiales y no clones de dinosaurio.
Sin duda me habría encantado leerlo antes de ver las películas.
