By the Book: Bibliography - Michael Crichton

The man that brought us Jurassic Park, Sphere and Andromeda Strain, Michael Crichton was many things. The father of the techno-thriller, he was also a deeply educated man who chose not to pursue medicine or anthropology, in lieu of becoming a writer. In this episode of Bibliography, we talk about the stories, the style, and the screenplays that resulted from Crichton's work.
