Jurassic Park by Michael Crishton

Jurassic Park is a 1990 science fiction novel written by Michael Crichton. A cautionary tale
about genetic engineering, it presents the collapse of an amusement park showcasing genetically
recreated dinosaurs to illustrate the mathematical concept of chaos theory and its real world
implications.

Plot Summary:
The story takes place on an Island off the Coast of Costa Rica. Where a very wealthy man, John
Hammond, has set up a genetically engineered dinosaur preserve. Before he opens this living
attraction to the public (only the people who can afford it) He needs people, who he thinks will be
good judges of the Park, he brings them in and begins to awe them with the sights of real
dinosaurs. One of the visitors, Ian Malcolm, predicts that this is impossible to accomplish. For he
says there are flaws in the system, and according to his chaos theory these animals cannot be
predicted.
While they are in awe one of the computer programmers, Dennis Nedry, Is secretly planning to
steal dinosaur embryos from the park and sell them to a company that is trying to stay in business
with Hammond. The only way Nedry can obtain these embryos id to shut down the park power so
he can sneak into the freezing chamber. Rising action He does while the other visitors are touring
the park, and everything goes wrong from there. As he is racing to get to the dock, where a boat
is waiting to take the embryos, He realizes that he has gone the wrong way. He gets out of the
car to try and figure out where he is and he’s attacked and killed by one of the dinosaurs .
Climax:
Now the power is out and all the animals can get out of the no longer electrified fences,
the others are stopped in front of the T-Rex holding area and he breaks through and
attacks them. Everyone flees and is scattered through the park. The animals begin
attacking the control building since all the power is out there is no way to stop them. One
of the Scientists, Wu, finds that the once all female dinosaurs are beginning to breed.
They think they got the power back on so they try to put all the animals back in their
holding areas. Falling action little did they know that the whole time the park was running
on auxiliary power, and once this power ran out they could not restore the main power.
When all the power finally ran out the animals began attacking full forced now. The only
way to get the park running again was to have someone manually turn on another
auxiliary power generator so they could get the main power running again.
Conflict:
The conflict was that man created dinosaurs without thinking. Now the dinosaurs were
trying to live freely and in the process trying to destroy the barriers in the way which
happen to be the men that created them.
