His books have sold more than 200 million copies worldwide, and more than a dozen have been adapted into movies. His literary works tend to be in science fiction, techno-thriller, and medical fiction genres, and largely feature technology. His novels often explore this technology and the failures of human interaction with it, especially as a result of disasters with biotechnology. Many of his novels have medical or scientific foundations reflecting his medical training and scientific training. Crichton received an M.D. from Harvard Medical School in 1969, but did not practice medicine, deciding to focus on his writing rather than. Originally written under a pseudonym, he eventually wrote 26 novels, including (1969), Terminal Man (1972), The Great Train Robbery (1975), (1980), (1987), (1990), (19 92), (1994), Lost World (1995), (1996), Timeline (1999), (2002), (2004), and Coming (2006). Several novels, in various states of completion, were published after his death in 2008. Crichton was also involved in the film and television industry. In 1973, he wrote and directed , the first film to use 2D computer images. He also directed the films Coma (1978), The First Great Train Robbery (1979), The View (1981) and The Fugitive (1984). He was the creator of the television series ER (1994-2009) and some of his novels were adapted into movies, most notably the Jurassic Park franchise. John Michael Crichton was born on October 23, 1942, in Chicago, Illinois, as John Henderson Crichton, a journalist, and zula Miller Crichton, a housewife. He grew up on Long Island, in Roslin, New York, and from a young age showed great interest in writing; at 14, he had an article about a trip to Sunset Crater published in . Crichton later recalled, Roslin was a different world. Looking back, it's wonderful that doesn't happen. There was no horror. Don't be afraid of child abuse. There's no fear of accidental murder. No drug use we knew about. I went to school. I rode my bike for miles and miles, to the movies on the high street and piano lessons and the like. The children had freedom. It was not such a dangerous world... We studied our butts and we got an extremely good education there. Crichton had always planned to become a writer and began his studies in college in 1960. While studying literature, he conducted an experiment on professor, who, in his opinion, gave him abnormally low marks and criticized his literary style. 4 Informing another professor of his suspicions, Crichton presented Anrwell's essay under his own name. The paper was returned to his unwitting professor with the mark B. He later said, Now Orwell was a great writer, and if B-minus was all he could get, I thought it best to give up English as my major. His disagreements with the English department led to Crichton switching his student concentration. He received a bachelor's degree in biological anthropology with honors in 1964 and was initiated by the Phi Beta Kappa Society. From 1964 to 1965 he received a Henry Russell Shaw Scholarship, and in 1965 he was a visiting lecturer in anthropology at the University of Cambridge in the United Kingdom. Crichton later enrolled at Harvard Medical School. (page needed) Crichton later said: About two weeks in medical school I realized that I hated it. This is not unusual, as everyone hates medical school - even a happy, practicing doctors. A pseudonymous novels (1965-1968) Crichton used the pseudonym Jeffrey Hudson, an ironic reference to the court dwarfs of the 17th century and his own abnormal height. In 1965, while studying at Harvard Medical School, Crichton wrote the novel . I wrote for furniture and groceries,' he said later. Odds On is a 215-page paperback novel that describes an attempted robbery at an isolated hotel on the Costa Brava. The robbery is planned scientifically with the help of a computer program critical analysis of the path, but unforeseen events will be useful. Crichton introduced it to Doubleday, where the reader loved it, but felt it wasn't for the company. Doubleday transferred it to the New American Library, which published it in 1966. Crichton used the pseudonym John Lange because he planned to become a doctor and didn't want his patients to worry that he would use them for his plots. The name comes from the writer of the fairy tale Andrew Lang. Crichton added the f to the surname and replaced his real name, John, for Andrew. The novel was successful enough to lead to a series of novels by John Lange. The rights to the film were sold out in 1969, but no film ended. Lange's second novel, (1967), tells the story of Roger Carr, a handsome, charming, privileged man who practices the law, more as a means of supporting his playboy lifestyle than career. Carr goes to Nice, France, where he has notable political connections, but is mistaken for a murderer and finds his life at risk. Crichton wrote the book while traveling in Europe on a scholarship trip. He attended the Cannes Film Festival and the Monaco Grand Prix, and then decided that idiot should be able to write a potboiler set in Cannes and Monaco, and wrote it in eleven days. He later described the book as nothing good. [15] [15] John Lange's third novel, (1968), is the story of Harold Barnaby, a brilliant Egyptologist who discovers a hidden message while translating hieroglyphics informing him of an unnamed pharaoh whose tomb has not yet been discovered. Crichton later said the book earned him $1,500. Crichton later said: My feeling about Lange's books is that my competition is in-flight films. You can read a book in an hour and a half, and be more satisfyingly amused than watching Doris Day. I write them quickly and the reader reads them quickly and I get things off my back. Crichton's fourth novel was The Case of Necessity (1968), a medical thriller. The novel had a different tone to Lange's books; Accordingly, Crichton used the pseudonym Jeffrey Hudson based on Sir Geoffrey Hudson, a 17th-century dwarf at the court of The Queen-Wife of Heinriche Mary of England. The novel was a turning point in Crichton's future novels, in which technology is important in the subject matter, although this novel was as much about medical practice. The novel earned him the Edgar Prize in 1969. He intended to use Jeffrey Hudson for other medical novels, but ended up using it only once. It will later be adapted into the film Carey's Treatment (1972). John Lang's alias, Michael Douglas's Early Novels and Screenplays (1969-1974), Crichton criticized Kurt Vonnegut's massacre of The Five (1969) in . Crichton says that after he finished his third year of medical school I stopped believing that one day I loved him and realized that what I loved was writing. He began publishing book reviews under his own name. In 1969, Crichton wrote a review for The New Republic (as J. Michael Crichton), criticizing Kurt Vonnegut's Slaughterhouse-Five. He also went on to write Lange's novels: The (1969), dealing with an American radiologist on holiday in Spain who was caught in a murderous crossfire between rival gangs looking for a precious artifact. Venom Business (1969) tells the story of a smuggler who uses his exceptional skill as a snake handler to his advantage by importing snakes to be used by pharmaceutical companies and universities for medical research. The first novel to be published under the name of Crichton was Andromeda Strain (1969), which turned out to be the most important novel of his career and became a bestselling author. The novel documented the efforts of a group of scientists investigating a deadly extraterrestrial that fatally clots human blood, causing death within two minutes. Crichton was inspired to write it after reading Len Deighton's IPCRESS file while studying in England. Crichton says he was horribly impressed with the book - a lot of Andromeda traced ipcress to the point of trying to create an imaginary world using recognizable methods and real real He wrote the novel for three years. The novel instantly became a hit, and the rights to the film were sold for $250,000. It was adapted in 1971 by director Robert Wise. During his clinical rotations at Boston City Hospital, Crichton became disillusioned with a culture that seemed to emphasize the interests and reputation of physicians over the interests of patients. He graduated from Harvard with a doctorate in 1969 and studied scholarship from 1969 to 1970 at the Salk Institute for Biological Research in La Jolla, . He never received a license to practice medicine, devoting himself to a writing career. Reflecting on his career in medicine many years later, Crichton concluded that patients too often avoid responsibility for their health by relying on doctors as miracle workers rather than counselors. He experimented with astral projection, aura viewing and clairvoyance, believing that they included real phenomena that scientists too willingly rejected as paranormal phenomena. In 1970, three more Crichton books under pseudonyms were published. Two of them were Lange novels, drugs of choice and Grave Descent. The following year, Grave Descend earned him an Edgar Award nomination. There was also a case: or Berkeley-Boston Forty Brick Lost-Bag Blues written with his younger brother Douglas Crichton. The deal was written under the pseudonym Michael Douglas, using their names. Crichton wrote it completely from start to finish. His brother then rewrote it from start to finish, and then Crichton rewrote it again. This novel was made in cinema in 1972. Around the same time, Crichton also wrote and sold the original film script, Morton Run. He also wrote a screenplay by Lucifer Harkness in Darkness. Crichton's first published book, , describes his experience in the late 1960s at Massachusetts General Hospital and spending and policy issues in American health care. In addition to fiction, Crichton has written several other books based on medical or scientific topics, often based on his own observations in his field of knowledge. In 1970, he published a book, Five Patients, about his experience of hospital practice in the late 1960s at Massachusetts General Hospital in Boston. The book follows each of the five patients through their experience at the hospital and the context of their treatment, identifying deficiencies in the hospital at the time. The book tells the story of the experience of Ralph Orlando, a builder seriously injured in a scaffold collapse; John O'Connor, a middle-aged dispatcher suffering from a fever that reduced him to a delusional wreck; Peter Lucesi, a young man who tore his arm in an accident; Sylvia Thompson, a passenger on the airline Chest pains; and Edith Murphy, a mother of three who has been diagnosed with a life-threatening disease. In Five Patients, Crichton examines a brief history of medicine until 1969 to help put hospital culture and practice into context, and examines the costs and policies of American health care. In 1974, he wrote a pilot script for the 24 Hour medical series based on his book Five Patients, however, the networks were underwhelmed. As a personal friend of the artist Jasper Jones, Crichton collected many of his works in a coffee table book published as Jasper Jones. It was originally published in 1970 by Harry N. Abrams, Inc. in collaboration with the Whitney Museum of American Art and again in January 1977, with the second revised edition published in 1994. Psychiatrist Janet Ross owned a copy of Jasper Jones's Numbers in Crichton's later novel . The technophobic antagonist of history found it strange that a person would draw numbers because they are inorganic. In 1972, Crichton published his latest novel, as John Lange: , tells the story of a villainous middle-class businessman who tries to assassinate the president of the United States by abducting an army shipment of two precursor chemicals that form a deadly nerve agent. Terminally intelligent (1972), about a psychomotor epileptic sufferer, Harry Benson, who, regularly suffering convulsions followed by blackouts, behaves inappropriately during seizures, waking up a few hours later, not knowing what he did. Considered psychotic, it is researched and electrodes are implanted into his brain. The book continued to take care of Crichton's novels about machine interaction and technology. The novel was adapted in 1974 by the film directed by Mike Hodges with George Segal in the title role. Crichton was hired to adapt his novel Terminal Man to a Warner Bros. script. ABC wanted to buy the rights to the film for Crichton's novel Binary. The author agreed with the caveat that he could direct the film. ABC has agreed to provide someone other than Crichton wrote the script. The result, Pursuit (1972) was the success of the ratings. Crichton then wrote and directed the 1973 sci-fi Western thriller Western World about robots that were furious, which was his directorial debut in a feature film. It was the first feature film using 2D computer images (CGI). The Westworld producer hired Crichton to write the original screenplay, which became an erotic thriller, Extreme Close-Up (1973). Directed by Giannot Schwartz, the film disappointed Crichton. In Crichton's 1976 novel The in Crichton's novel The Eaters of the Dead, relic Neanderthals appeared as antagonists. In 1975, Crichton wrote the Great Train train which will become a bestseller. The novel is a recreation of the Great Golden Robbery of 1855, a massive golden heist that takes place by train while traveling through Victorian England. Much of the book was written in London. Crichton learned about this story while lecturing at Cambridge University. He later read the transcripts of the trial and began to investigate the historical period. In 1976, Crichton published the novel Eaters of the Dead about a 10th-century Muslim who with a group of Vikings to his settlement. The Eaters of the Dead is described as a scientific commentary on an old manuscript and was inspired by two sources. The first three chapters retell Ahmad ibn Fadlan's personal account of his journey north and his experience of meeting Russia, the early Ukrainian peoples, while the rest is based on the history of Beowulf, which culminated in battles with foggy monsters, or vendol, a relic group of Neanderthals. Crichton wrote and directed the film Coma (1978), based on the novel of the same name by Robin Cook, his friend. There are other similarities in terms of genre and the fact that both Cook and Crichton had medical degrees, were the same age and wrote on similar topics. The film enjoys popular success. Crichton then wrote and directed an adaptation of his own book, The Great Train Robbery (1978), starring Sean Connery and Donald Sutherland. The film will be nominated for the British Society of Cinematographers Award for Best Cinematography, and will also receive the Edgar Allan Poe Award for Best Film from the American Writers' Association. In 1979, it was announced that Crichton would direct a film version of his novel The Eaters of the Dead for the newly formed Orion Pictures. That didn't happen. Crichton pitched the idea of contemporary king Solomon Mines to 20th Century Fox, who paid him $1.5 million for the film's rights to the novel, screenplay and directorial fee for the film before the word was written. It has never worked this way before, usually to write a book, then sell it. Eventually he managed to finish the book and Congo became a bestseller. Crichton did the screenplay for Congo after he wrote and directed (1981). Looker was a financial disappointment. Crichton was close to directing a film about Congo with Sean Connery, but the film didn't happen. After all, in 1995, another director made a film. In 1984, Telarium released a graphic adventure based on the Congo. Because Crichton sold all the rights to the film adaptation of the novel, he put a game called in South America, and Amy the gorilla became Paco's parrot. In the same year, Crichton also wrote and directed Runaway (1984), a police thriller set in the near future, which became a box office disappointment. [50] he began writing Sphere in 1967 as a companion to Andromeda Strain. Its original storyline began when American scientists discovered a 300-year-old spaceship underwater with stencil markings in English. However, Crichton later realized that he did not know where to go with him and put the completion of the book at a later date. The novel was published in 1987. It tells the story of psychologist Norman Johnson, who requires the U.S. Navy to join a team of scientists assembled by the U.S. government to study a huge alien spacecraft discovered at the bottom of the Pacific Ocean, and is believed to have been there for more than 300 years. The novel begins as a sci-fi story, but quickly changes into a psychological thriller, ultimately exploring the nature of the human imagination. The novel was adapted into a 1998 film directed by Barry Levinson and starring Dustin Hoffman. Crichton worked as a director only on the film (1989), a thriller originally conceived as a continuation of Jagged Edge. In 1988, Crichton was a visiting writer at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. The book of autobiographical works Travels was published in 1988. Commercial success and collaboration with Steven Spielberg (1989-1999) in Crichton's novel Jurassic Park and its sequels were shot in films that became a major part of popular culture, with parks such as Kletno, Poland. In 1990, Crichton published the novel Jurassic Park. Crichton used the fiction as fact presentation used in his previous novels, The Eaters of the Dead and Andromeda Strain. In addition, chaos theory and its philosophical implications are used to explain the collapse of an amusement park in a biological reserve on isla Nubler Island, a fictional island west of Costa Rica. The novel began as a script Crichton wrote in 1983, about a graduate student who recreates a dinosaur. After all, given his reasoning that genetic research is expensive and there is no urgent need to create a dinosaur, Crichton concluded that he would come out of a desire to entertain that would lead to a wildlife park for extinct animals. The story was originally told from a child's point of view, but Crichton changed it, as everyone who read the project felt it would be better if an adult told about it. Crichton originally conceived a script about a graduate student who recreated a dinosaur, but decided to stop studying his fascination with dinosaurs and cloning until he began writing a novel. Steven Spielberg learned about the novel in October 1989, when he and Crichton were discussing a script that would become an ER television series. Before the book was published, Crichton demanded a non-negotiable fee of $1.5 million, as well as a significant portion of the gross. Warner Bros. and Tim Sony Pictures Entertainment and Richard Donner as well as 20th Century Fox and Joe Dante bid for the rights, but Universal eventually acquired the rights in May 1990 for Spielberg. Universal paid Crichton another $500,000 to adapt his own novel, which he had completed by the time Spielberg was filming Hook. Crichton noted that since the book was quite long, his script was only about 10% to 20% of the content of the novel. The film, shot by Spielberg, was released in 1993. A mosquito preserved in amber. A sample of this kind was the source of dinosaur DNA in Jurassic Park. In 1992, Crichton published Rising Sun, an international bestseller about the murder at the headquarters of the fictional Japanese corporation Nakamoto in . The book was adapted into a 1993 film directed by Philip Kaufman and starring Sean Connery and Wesley Snipes, released in the same year as an adaptation of Jurassic Park. His next novel, Disclosure, published in 1994, focuses on sexual harassment, previously explored in his 1972 binary file. Unlike this novel, however, Crichton engages in sexual politics in the workplace, highlighting many paradoxes in traditional gender roles, showing the main male character being sexually harassed by a female leader. As a result, the book was strongly criticized by feminist commentators and accused of anti-methism. Crichton, anticipating this response, offered a rebuttal at the end of the novel, which states that a role-turning story reveals aspects of the subject that will not be seen as easy with a female hero. The novel was filmed the same year, directed by Barry Levinson and starring Michael Douglas and Demi Moore. Crichton was the creator and executive producer of the television drama ER based on his 1974 pilot script 24 Hours. Spielberg helped develop the show by acting as an executive producer for the first season and offering advice (he insisted Julianna Margulies was becoming permanent, for example). It is also through Spielberg's Amblin Entertainment that John Wells contacted to be the executive producer of the show. In 1994, Crichton achieved a unique distinction, having a No.1 film, Jurassic Park, 66 No. 1 TV Show, ER, and No.1 Book, Disclosure. In 1995, Crichton published Lost the World as a sequel to Jurassic Park. The name was a reference to Arthur Conan Doyle's The Lost World (1912). It was filmed in 1997 two years later, again directed by Spielberg. In March 1994, Crichton said he would probably be a sequel to the novel as well as an adaptation, saying he had an idea for the novel's history. Then, in 1996, Crichton published Airframe, an aero-techno-thriller. The book continued Crichton's general theme about people's failure to interact and machines, given the given The plane worked perfectly and the accident would not have happened if the pilot had reacted properly. He also wrote Twister (1996) with Anne-Marie Martin, his wife at the time. In 1999, Crichton published The Chronicle, a sci-fi novel in which experts travel back in time into the medieval period. The novel, which continued Crichton's long history of combining technical details and actions in his books, addresses quantum physics and time travel directly and received a warm welcome from medieval scholars who praised his portrayal of problems in the study of the Middle Ages. In 1999, Crichton founded Timeline Computer Entertainment with David Smith. Despite signing a multi-stage publishing agreement with Eidos Interactive, only one game has ever been published, Timeline. Released by Eidos Interactive on November 10, 2000 for PC, the game received negative reviews. The 2003 film, based on the book, was directed by Richard Donner, starring Paul Walker, Gerard Butler and Frances O'Connor. The Eaters of the Dead was adapted in 1999 in the film directed by John McTiernan, which was later removed from Crichton himself, taking charge of the shootouts. Concluding novels and more lifelong (2000-2008) Crichton, speaking at Harvard University in 2002 in 2002, Crichton published Prey's book on developments in science and technology; in particular, nanotechnology. The novel explores relatively recent phenomena generated by the work of the scientific community, such as artificial life, appearance (and therefore complexity), genetic algorithms and agent calculations. In 2004, Crichton published the novel State of Fear about eco-terrorists who try mass murder to support their views. Global warming is the central theme of the novel. A review into nature found the novel likely to mislead the reckless. The novel had an initial circulation of 1.5 million copies and reached number one in the best-selling list in Amazon.com and No. 2 on The New York Times bestseller list in one week in January 2005. The last novel published while he was still living was Next in 2006. The novel follows many characters, including transgenic animals, in search to survive in a world dominated by genetic research, corporate greed, and legal interventions, wherein the government and private investors spend billions of dollars each year on genetic research. In 2006, Crichton ran into journalist Michael Crowley, senior editor of The New Republic magazine. In March 2006, Crowley wrote a critical review of the state of fear, focusing on Crichton's position on global warming. In the same year, Crichton published the novel Next, which contains a secondary named Mick Crowley, who is a Yale University graduate and political commentator from Washington, D.C. The character was depicted as a paedophile with a small penis. Character Character don't show up anywhere else in the book. The real Crowley, also a Yale graduate, claimed that by including a character of the same name as Crichton, he slandered him. Posthumous work Several novels that were in various states of completion after Crichton's death have since been published. The first, , was found as a manuscript on one of his computers after his death. He focuses on a fictional private citizen who tries to attack the Spanish galleon. It was published in November 2009 by HarperCollins. In addition, Crichton completed the sketches and was about a third of the way through a novel called , a novel that focuses on technology that reduces people to microscopic sizes. Micro was completed by Richard Preston using Crichton's records and files and was published in November 2011. On July 28, 2016, Crichton and HarperCollins announced the publication of a third posthumous novel, Dragon Teeth, which he wrote in 1974. This is a historical novel set during the Bone Wars, and includes real life characters of Otniel Charles Marsh and Edward Dryker Cope. The novel was released in May 2017. In addition, some of his published works are continued by other authors. On February 26, 2019, Crichton and HarperCollins announced the publication of The Andromeda Evolution, a sequel to Andromeda Strain, in collaboration with CrichtonSun LLC. and author Daniel H. Wilson. It was released on November 12, 2019. The scientific and legal career of Video Game and Computing Crichton was one of the first proponents of programming and computers, predicting their ubiquity. In 1983, Crichton wrote the book , which introduces readers to BASIC programming. The book, written as a glossary, with records such as Afraid of Computers (everything is), Computer Purchase, and Computer Crime, was designed to present the idea of personal computers to the reader, who may face difficulties using them at work or at home for the first time. He identified basic computer jargon and assured readers that they could master the machine when it inevitably arrived. According to him, the ability to program a computer is a release: In my experience, you claim control of the computer- show him who the boss is, forcing him to do something unique. That means programming it. ... If you devote a couple of hours to programming a new machine, you'll feel better about it ever after. In the book, Crichton predicts a number of events in the history of computer development that computer networks will increase in importance for convenience purposes, including the exchange of information and photos that we see on the Internet today, which the phone could never. It also makes predictions for computer dismissing them as hula hoops of the 80s, and said: already there is that craze for twitch games can be fading. In a section of the book called Microprocessors, or how I failed biostatistics at Harvard, Crichton again seeks revenge on a teacher who gave him abnormally low grades in college. Crichton's book included many self-written Applesoft (for Apple II) and BASICA (for IBM-compatible PCs). Amazon is a graphic adventure game created by Crichton and produced by John Wells. Trillium released it in the U.S. in 1984, and the game runs on Apple II, Atari 8-bit, Atari ST, Commodore 64, and DOS. Amazon sold more than 100,000 copies, making it a significant commercial success at the time. It presented elements of the plot similar to those previously used in the Congo. Crichton founded the company by selling a computer program he originally wrote to help him create budgets for his films. He often sought to use computing in films such as Westworld, which was the first film to use computer special effects. He also pushed Spielberg to include them in The Jurassic Park movies. He won an Award for technical achievements in 1995 for his innovative use of computer programs in film production. In November 2006, at the National Press Club in Washington, D.C., Crichton joked that he considered himself an expert in intellectual property law. He has been embroiled in several lawsuits with others claiming credit for his work. In 1985, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit heard Berkic v. Crichton, 761 F.2d 1289 (1985). Plaintiff Ted Berkich wrote a screenplay called Reincarnation Inc., which he claims Crichton plagiarized for the film Coma. The court ruled in Crichton's favor, saying the works were not significantly similar. In the 1996 case, Williams v.. Crichton, 84 F.3d 581 (2d Cir. 1996), Jeffrey Williams argued that Jurassic Park infringed his copyright covering his dinosaur-themed children's stories, published in the late 1980s. The court ruled in Crichton's favor. In 1998, the U.S. District Court in Missouri heard Kessler v. Crichton, who actually went all the way to the jury trial, unlike other cases. Plaintiff Stephen Kessler argued that the film Twister (1996) was based on his work Catch the Wind. It took the jury about 45 minutes to reach a verdict in Crichton's favor. After the sentencing, Crichton refused to shake Hands with Kessler. Crichton later summarized his intellectual property court case: I always win. Crichton's global warming has become well known for attacking the science behind global warming. He testified before Congress in 2005. His views will be challenged by a number of scholars and An example is a review by meteorologist Jeffrey Masters of Crichton's 2004 novel State State or misleading presentations of the science of global warming exist in the book, including the thinning of Arctic sea ice, the correction of ground temperature measurements for the effect of urban thermal islands and satellite measurements of warming on earth. I'll spare the reader more details. On the positive side, Crichton does emphasize the little appreciated fact that while most of the world has been warming in the last few decades, much of has seen a trend towards cooling. According to the IPCC, the Antarctic ice sheet will increase in mass over the next 100 years due to increased rainfall. Peter Doran, author of an article in the January 2002 issue of Nature, which reported on the conclusion above that parts of Antarctica cooled between 1986 and 2000, wrote an article in The New York Times dated 27 July 2006 in which he stated that our results were used by Michael Crichton in his novel The State of Fear. told a U.S. House of Representatives committee on March 21, 2007: The temperature has risen on the planet. If your child has a fever, you go to the doctor ... if your doctor tells you that you need to intervene here, you don't say: Well, I read a sci-fi novel that tells me it's not a problem. Some commentators interpreted this as a reference to the state of fear. The literary technique and style of Crichton's novels, including Jurassic Park, were described by The Guardian as a return to the fantastical adventure fiction of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, Jules Verne, Edgar Rice Burroughs and Edgar Wallace, but with a modern spin, aided by technologically advanced references available to the general reader. According to The Guardian, Michael Crichton wasn't really interested in the characters, but his innate talent for storytelling allowed him to breathe new life into a sci-fi thriller. Like The Guardian, The New York Times also noted the quality of the boys' adventures in his novels intertwined with modern technology and science. According to The New York Times, all of Crichton's books depend to some extent on a bit of frisson of fear and suspense: this is what kept you turning the pages. But the deeper source of their appeal was the author's extravagant concern in developing the hour-long mechanics of his experiments - DNA replication in Jurassic Park, time travel in Timeline, underwater technology in the Sphere. Novels have built in them small lectures or mini-seminars, say, on the principle of Bernoulli, voice recognition software or medieval chivalrous etiquette... The best of Crichton's novels have an adventure quality of boys about them. They obliged something in the Saturday afternoon film series that Mr. Crichton looked like and the adventure novels of Arthur Conan Doyle (from whom Crichton borrowed the name The Lost World and whose example showed that the novel can never have too many dinosaurs). These books thrive on yarn spinning, but they also take immense pleasure in the inner workings of things (unlike men, especially women), and they make the world, or make-up world, anyway, seem infinitely interesting. Readers leave entertained, and with the belief, not quite illusory, that they actually learned something new to the New York Times about the works of Michael Crichton, Crichton's work has often been cautionary; its plots often depicted scientific advances, other, which usually led to the worst-case scenarios. A notable recurring theme in Crichton's plots is the pathological failure of complex systems and their safeguards, whether biological (Jurassic Park), militaristic/organizational (The Andromeda Strain), technological (Airframe) or cybernetic (Westworld). This theme of the inevitable disintegration of ideal systems and the abandonment of safe measures can be seen strongly in the poster for Westworld, whose slogan was: Where Nothing Can Go (sic) and in discussing the theory of chaos in Jurassic Park. His 1973 film Westworld contains one of the previous references to a computer virus and the first mention of the concept of a computer virus in the film. Crichton believed, however, that his view of technology was misunderstood as being there, doing bad things for us, people as we are inside a circle of covered wagons and the technology there firing arrows at us. We make technology, and it's a manifestation of how we think. To the extent that we think selfishly and irrationally and paranoid and stupid, then we have technology that will give us nuclear winters or cars that won't slow down. But that's because people don't design them properly. The use of an author's surrogate has been a feature of Crichton's writings from the very beginning of his career. If necessary, one of his alias whodunit stories, Crichton used a first-person narration to portray a hero, a Boston pathologist who works against the clock to clear a friend's name of medical negligence in the girl's death from a hacking abortion work. Crichton used a literary technique known as a false document. The Eaters of the Dead is a rest of the Old English epic Bovulf, presented as a scientific translation of the 10th-century manuscript by Ahmad ibn Fadlan. Andromeda Strain and Jurassic Park include fictional scientific documents in the form of diagrams, computer output, DNA sequences, footnotes and bibliography. The terminal man and the state of fear include genuine published scientific papers that illustrate the point of the premise. Crichton often uses the backgrounds of various experts or experts assembled to solve the unique problem that requires them talents and knowledge. The room was used for Andromeda, Sphere, Jurassic Park and, to a lesser extent, the Timeline. Sometimes individual characters in this dynamic work in the private sector and suddenly called on the government to form an immediate response team as soon as any incident or discovery causes their mobilization. This premise or story device has been imitated and used by other authors and screenwriters in several books, films and television shows since then. In his teens, Crichton felt isolated because of his height (6 feet 9in, or 206 cm). In the 1970s and 1980s, he consulted with psychics and enlightenment gurus to make him feel more socially acceptable and improve his karma. As a result of these experiences, Crichton practiced meditation for most of his life. He is often seen as a deist; however, he never publicly confirmed it. Asked online if he was a spiritual man, Crichton said: Yes, but it's hard to say. Crichton was a workaholic. In writing the novel, which usually takes him six or seven weeks, Crichton completely retired to follow what he called a structured approach of ritual self-denial. As he neared the writing end of each book, he would grow up earlier each day, meaning that he would sleep less than four hours, sleep at 10 p.m. and wake up at 2 a.m. In 1992, Crichton was one of the 50 most beautiful people of People magazine. He got married five times. Four marriages ended in divorce: with Joan Radam (1965-1970), Kathleen St. Johns (1978-1980), Suzanne Childs (1981-1983), and actress Anne-Marie Martin (1987-2003), mother of his daughter Taylor Ann (born 1989). At the time of his death, Crichton was married to Sherry Alexander (2005-2008), who was six months pregnant with her son John Michael Todd Crichton, born february 12, 2009. Crichton's brother Douglas was diagnosed with lymphoma in early 2008. According to the privately-owned Crichton, his cancer was not made public until his death. He was undergoing chemotherapy at the time of his death, and Crichton's doctors and relatives were waiting for his recovery. He died at the age of 66 on November 4, 2008. Michael's talent zeroed even his own dinosaurs from Jurassic Park. He was the greatest in mixing science with great theatrical concepts, which gave confidence to the dinosaurs walking on the ground again. In the early days, Michael had just sold Andromeda Strain to Robert Wise on Universal, and I recently signed up as a TV contract director there. My first assignment was to show Michael Crichton around Universal a lot. We became friends and professionally Jurassic Park, ER, and Twister Michael was a gentle soul who reserved his bright side for his novels. There is no one in the wings who will ever take his place. - Steven Spielberg on the death of Michael Crichton as a pop novelist, he was divine. Crichton's book was with a head of experience managed by a man who was both a natural narrator and a fiendishly intelligent when it came to verisimilitude; it made you believe that dinosaur cloning was not only over the horizon, but perhaps tomorrow. Maybe today. Stephen King at Crichton, 2008 Crichton had an extensive collection of 20th century American art that Christie's put up for auction in May 2010. Accepting the Kraytonsaurus skeleton in Crichton's Chinese novels Most of Crichton's novels address questions in the field of scientific research. In a number of his novels (Jurassic Park, The Lost World, Next, Congo), genomics plays an important role. Typically, the drama revolves around a sudden eruption of scientific crisis, revealing the devastating effects new forms of knowledge and technology can have, as indicated in Andromeda Strain, Crichton's first scientific novel: This book tells the five-day story of a major American scientific crisis (1969, p. 3) or Terminal Man, where unexpected behaviors are realized when electrodes are implanted in a person.

During his lifetime, he has made a number of notable speeches, particularly on the topic of global warming. Intelligence Squared Debate March 14, 2007, Intelligence Squared, which received funding from oil and gas company Shell, 127 held a debate in New York called Global Warming Not Crisis, run by Brian Lehrer. Crichton was on the side of the movement with Richard Lindsen and Philip Stott up against Gavin Schmidt, Richard Somerville, and Brenda Ekwurzel. Before the debate, the audience was mostly on the anti-movement side (57% vs. 30%, with 13% undecided). At the end of the debate there was a noticeable change in the audience voting to prefer the party for the movement (46% vs. 42%, with 12% undecided), debate with the conclusion that Crichton's group had won. Although Crichton inspired many blog responses, and this was considered one of his best rhetorical speeches, the reception to his message was mixed. Other speeches by Mediasaurus Decline of conventional media In a speech, speaking at the National Press Club in Washington, D.C., on April 7, 1993, Crichton predicted the decline of the mainstream media. Ritual abuse, hot air and missed opportunities Science Media Views AAAS invited Crichton to address the concerns of scientists about how they are portrayed in the media, delivered to the American Association for the Advancement of Science in Anaheim, California on January 25, 1999. Ecology as a religion It was not the first discussion of ecology as a religion, but it caught on and was widely cited. Crichton explains his view that religious approaches to the environment are inappropriate and detrimental to the natural world they intend to protect. The speech was presented to the Commonwealth Club in San Francisco, California, on September 15, 2003. Crichton, a 21st-century academic, laid out several issues before a joint meeting of liberal and conservative think tanks. The speech was delivered at the AEI- Brookings Institute in Washington, D.C., on January 25, 2005. On 25 January 2005, at the National Press Club in Washington, D.C., Crichton gave a detailed explanation of why he criticized the consensus view on global warming. Using published UN data, he argued that the claims of catastrophic warming were questionable; that reducing CO2 emissions is much more difficult than is usually assumed; and why societies are morally unjustified spending huge sums on the speculative issue of people around the world dying of hunger and disease. Caltech Michelin Lecture Aliens Cause Global Warming on January 17, 2003. In the spirit of his science fiction writing Crichton details research on nuclear winter and SETI Drake equations in relation to global warming science. Testifying before the U.S. Senate along with climate scientists, Crichton was invited to testify before the Senate in September 2005, as an expert witness on global warming. The speech was passed to the Committee on Environment and Public Works in Washington, D.C. Theory of Complexity and Environmental Management In previous speeches, Crichton criticized environmental groups for failing to include the theory of complexity. Here he explains in detail why the theory of complexity is important for environmental management, using the history of Yellowstone Park as an example of what not to do. The speech was delivered to the Washington Center for Complexity and Public Policy in Washington, D.C., on November 6, 2005. [137] research and legislative needs when writing Crichton concluded that laws covering genetic research are in desperate need of revision, and has spoken to congressional staff about the challenges ahead. The speech was delivered to a group of legislators in Washington, D.C., on September 14, 2006. Why speculate? In a speech in 2002, Crichton coined the term Gell-Mann amnesia effect. He used the term to describe a phenomenon where experts believe that news articles on topics that do not disengnth their fields of expertise, even after acknowledging that articles written in the same publication, which are within the purview of experts, are errors and are full of misunderstanding. He explains the irony of the term by saying that it happened because I once discussed it with Murray Gell-Mann, and by dropping a known name, I mean more value to myself, and to effect than it would otherwise be. Legacy In 2002, the genus of ankylosa Crichtonsaurus was named after him. Its properties continue to adapt to movies, making it the 20th highest-grossing creator of history of all time.
