Travels. Michael Crichton.
Travels. Michael Crichton. 1988. The author of many famous science related thrillers and movies like Jurassic Park, Crichton pens a concise story behind his life. He covers his time as a medicals student and why he quite after getting his degree. It certainly seems that he was a very efficient writer, publishing The Andromeda Strain while still in med school ! He details his background and physical and mental journeys through many different experiences. I was surprised at his dedication to research, his eclectic interests and playful nature toward everything ( Ie a very open mind) . A real bonus is the appended speech he was to give at Cal Tech on Science and Mysticism. It is a very coherent analysis which presents the material in an open fashion and is well worth the read.
