The Story takes place on an Island off the Coast of Costa Rica. Where A very wealthy man, John Hammond, Has set up A Genetically engineered Dinosaur preserve. Before he opens this living attraction to the public(only the people who can afford it) He needs people, who he thinks will be good judges of the Park. He brings them in and begins to awe them with the sights of real dinosaurs. One of the visitors, Ian Malcolm, predicts that this is impossible to accomplish. For he says there are flaws in the system, and according to his chaos theory these animals cannot be predicted.

While they are in awe one of the computer programmers, Dennis Nedry, Is secretly planning to steal dinosaur embryos from the park and sell them to a company that is trying to stay in business with Hammond. The only way Nedry can obtain these embryos id to shut down the park power so he can sneak into the freezing chamber.

He does while the other visitors are touring the park, and everything goes wrong from there. As he is racing to get to the dock, where a boat is waiting to take the embryo

The conflict was that man created dinosaurs without thinking. Now the dinosaurs were trying to live freely and in the process trying to destroy the barriers in the way which happen to be the men that created them. I believe that we should not temper with things that are living and unpredictable. I was not satisfied in the way this problem was solved. After the men created dinosaurs they were trying to survive on instinct and the men got scared and decided to obliterate the helpless dinosaurs. They didn't even think twice about killing them. Since they were a threat the needed to be eliminated. Men should before they act in a way that could come back to haunt them.

Little did they know that the whole time the park was running on auxiliary power, and once this power ran out they could not restore the main power. When all the power finally ran out the animals began attacking full forced now. The only way to get the park running again was to have someone manually turn on another auxiliary power generator so they could get the main power running again.

There were many main characters in Jurassic Park. First there was Alan Grant, a Paleontologist who was about 5' 11', thin, and was very interested in dinosaurs. He didn't have any strong opinion about the park except that he was so excited to see real dinosaurs. Next there was Ellen Sattler, She was Grant's partner in digs. She was very beautiful, but very active and strong. She seemed to be very interested in this amazing new world of the dinosaurs. Next there was Ian Malcolm, a tall mathematician who always wore black. He had very strong opinions opposing the park. He knew things would go wrong but no one listened to him. I enjoyed
