The Nightmare of Bioengineering

‘Jurassic Park: A Novel’ By Michael Crichton

The newest—and “wokest”—addition to the Jurassic series is in theaters, so we recommend going back to where it all began: “Jurassic Park” the novel. Journey into the world of DNA manipulation, dinosaurs, and an adventure park that eventually turns into a nightmare.
