The book is mostly about some of the "travels" Michael Crichton did over his life time. The beginning part was about his studies and how he became a MD. There are a few observations that I have taken away from reading this book. First, Crichton appeared to be extremely honest in describing his feelings and observations. Not many people are willing to admit that they saw some humans and wondered if they were really human. Second, for all his success and money, he appeared to be an unhappy man who was always searching for something else. He didn't state which travels were for research and which were for himself. Also, he appeared to have no stability in his personal relationships with others. I am studying the Book of Ecclesiastics at the same time I was reading this. I noted similarities between King Solomon and Crichton. The both had more of the wealth of this world than most people, yet they were both unhappy. Both continued to search for something else, whatever that may be. Both had multiple relationships and had difficulties sustaining something permanent. I would sum it up as Solomon wrote, “Meaningless! Meaningless!” says the Teacher. “Utterly meaningless! Everything is meaningless.”
Crichton tried to find comfort and truth in many areas, but never (at least from what is written in this book) tried to find THE TRUTH as is presented in the Bible. As I read this book, I felt sorry for this man who had so much but appeared to want more but was unsure of what that more was.
