State of Fear, by Michael Crichton, New York: HarperCollins Publishers, 2004, 603 pages, hardcover.

Michael Crichton is no stranger to the bestseller list. The father of the techno-thriller novel, he has scored numerous hits with such titles as Sphere, Timeline, The Andromeda Strain, and Jurassic Park. His works are proven attractions for Hollywood with a number of novels recast as blockbuster feature films. The most successful, Jurassic Park, holds the tenth spot all-time at the U.S. box office. Crichton's success even stretches to television, where his prime time drama ER has long been a viewer favorite.
