Reviews
"Yet another terrifically entertaining Crichton thriller and--thanks to Richard Preston--we're lucky to have it." -- Alan Cheuse, NPR's "All Things Considered" "Micro ranks with Crichton's blockbusters The Andromeda Strain and Jurassic Park, and Preston deserves praise for polishing the novel and making it sing." -- Associated Press "A fast-paced mix of adventure and cutting-edge science, a novel that takes us deep into a fascinating, if violent, microscale universe.... [An] edge-of-the-seat technological thriller.... It is wonderful to see Crichton's genius--the audacious mix of adventure and techno-speak that made him famous--on vivid display." -- Paul McEuen, Nature "Fantastic." -- New York Post

In the vein of Jurassic Park, this high-concept thriller follows a group of graduate students lured to Hawaii to work for a mysterious biotech company-only to find themselves cast out into the rain forest, with nothing but their scientific expertise and wits to protect them. An instant classic, Micro pits nature against technology in vintage Michael Crichton fashion. Completed by visionary science writer Richard Preston, this boundary-pushing thriller melds scientific fact with pulse-pounding fiction to create yet another masterpiece of sophisticated, cutting-edge entertainment., "Micro ranks with Crichton's blockbusters The Andromeda Strain and Jurassic Park." --Associated Press An instant classic, Micro pits nature against technology in vintage Crichton fashion. Completed by visionary science writer Richard Preston, this boundary-pushing thriller melds scientific fact with pulse-pounding fiction to create yet another masterpiece of sophisticated, cutting-edge entertainment. In a locked Honolulu office building, three men are found dead with no sign of struggle except for the ultrafine, razor-sharp cuts covering their bodies. The only clue left behind is a tiny bladed robot, nearly invisible to the human eye. In the lush forests of Oahu, groundbreaking technology has ushered in a revolutionary era of biological prospecting. Trillions of microorganisms, tens of thousands of bacteria species, are being discovered; they are feeding a search for priceless drugs and applications on a scale beyond anything previously imagined. In Cambridge, Massachusetts, seven graduate students at the forefront of their fields are recruited by a pioneering microbiology start-up. Nanigen MicroTechnologies dispatches the group to a mysterious lab in Hawaii, where they are promised access to tools that will open a whole new scientific frontier. But once in the Oahu rain forest, the scientists are thrust into a hostile wilderness that reveals profound and surprising dangers at every turn. Armed only with their knowledge of the natural world, they find themselves prey to a technology of radical and unbridled power. To survive, they must harness the inherent forces of nature itself., In the vein of Jurassic Park, this high-concept thriller follows a group of graduate students lured to Hawaii to work for a mysterious biotech company only to find themselves cast out into the rain forest, with nothing but their scientific expertise and wits to protect them.An instant classic, Micro pits nature against technology in vintage Michael Crichton fashion.

- y***g (1204)- Bewertung vom Käufer.Letzte 6 MonateBestätigter KaufThe book is charming -- and new condition as shown. This is a hard to find item, so glad to find it new here for a reasonable price! It arrived quickly, but was packed in a mailing envelope -- and even though it was padded, one of corner was crushed, which was disappointing as this is to be a gift. Overall postive, nonetheless.Maddie on Things: A Super Serious Project About Dogs and Physics (Nr. 297426162593)
