The novel Jurassic Park by Michael Crichton said a lot about my big question, what is the human experience. The novel, a thrilling tale about an attempt to construct a prehistoric zoo that ends in several people trapped on an island with many escaped and angry dinosaurs, demonstrates the rawest of human emotion, which is a critical component of the human experience. Surprisingly the themes in this novel are very similar to those in both the novel Shockwave (Clive Cussler) and the film Pterodactyl, that theme being that to survive you need both knowledge as well as fitness.
Reading Jurassic Park helped me understand my big question much better. It helped, along with the other sources, show me that a major part of the human experience is simply survival and the effort to learn the skills necessary for it. I would recommend this book to any one who is considering reading it, the subject of a major motion picture it is definitively a very thrilling read. There is not a slow part in the entire novel, it will keep you on the edge of your seat throughout.
