What is The Science of Jurassic Park and the Lost World about?

At the heart of the tremendously successful movie and bestselling novel <i>Jurassic Park</i> is a simple but provocative proposition: If, 65 million years ago, an insect that had bitten a dinosaur had then been preserved in amber, could modern scientists extract dinosaur DNA from the insect and use it to clone a new dinosaur? To answer this question, authors Rob DeSalle and David Lindley take you on a fun romp into the far reaches of modern science to explore the world of dinosaurs and DNA, where you can learn: <p>Where to search for amber from the dinosaur ageHow to identify DNAWhy the hardest part of the process would be to find an egg that "knows" everything a dinosaur embryo needs to develop and surviveWhether a dinosaur could learn how to behave like a dinosaur if there were no older dinosaurs around to teach it</p> <p>Discover the answers to these and many other curious questions, along with delightful and fascinating facts and factoids -- including funny <i>Jurassic Park</i> movie bloopers -- as two renowned scientists explore the science of <i>Jurassic Park</i> and <i>The Lost World</i>.</p>
