| In this book John Hammond, the president of Bio Technology decides that he wants to make dinosaurs by using new technology to reconstruct their DNA. The park is set to open in one year and he wants to make sure that the park is ready for the visitors. He invites several people to the island, one of which is Ian Malcolm who believes that the park is doomed to fail due to his chaos theory. Everything seems to be going smoothly when suddenly the power goes out.
Nedry the technical adviser tries to steal the embryos of the dinosaurs and sell them to another company but he is stopped by some of the dinosaurs due to his poor sense of direction. The other park employees try to figure how to get the power back on but without Nedrys help it is very difficult. | ||
