For those of you who don't know, this indie publication about which I write, Parade, is a little like McClure's circa 1913. Nothing but muckraking reporting. In fact, Lee Kravitz makes Ida Tarbell seem like an Alzheimer's-stricken journalistic hack. Over at Reason they have a link to a very good review of Crichton's latest. I'm far too lazy to link to it directly, however, so you're on your own, suckers.

And maybe some dinosaurs or mutated monkeys or something like that.
