Medicine has suffered the full effects of the scientific outpouring of information. ... As a stopgap measure, medical schools have kept the total number of years constant, but have lengthened the per-week teaching load. Thus medical students at Harvard attend twice as many hours of classes per week as law or business students. Of necessity, this makes medical education a very passive business and deprives the student of the single most important thing he desperately needs to learn while at school -- how to initiate the educational process for himself, later on, when he is a practitioner.

I recently read Micro by Richard Preston and Michael Crichton. This is one of those posthumous books of his. This one is complete garbage. It doesn't sound like Crichton, it is very poorly written, and just bad.
From what I understand, this was written based on some notes Crichton wrote on napkins or something and Preston wrote a book based on what little info he had. But to put Crichton's name on this book is a disservice to his legacy.

MIST0426/ATONALOSPREY-MICHAEL_CRIGHTON-JURASSIC_PARK
Mistigram: @atonalosprey was so preoccupied with whether or not he could render #ChipKidd’s iconic cover art design to Michael Crichton’s 1990 bestseller #JurassicPark as #teletext #ASCIIart… he didn’t stop to think if he should. This screen was included in last month’s books-themed MIST0426 artpack collection.

And here’s another bit from Michael Crichton’s ‘Disclosure’ (which he says is based on a true story), 1st published in 1994, but still feels contemporary in lots of areas; this is part of a longer speech:
“Third, I think that we have an obligation to— a social obligation, if you will— to keep high-paying skilled jobs in the U.S. Other countries don’t export good jobs. Why should we? Each of our offshore manufacturing decisions has been made for a specific reason, and, personally, I hope we start to move them back here. Because there are many hidden costs in offshore fabrication. … we need manufacturing. If there’s anything that the last twenty years has shown us, it’s that design and manufacturing are all one process. You start splitting off the design engineers from the manufacturing guys and you’ll end up with bad design. You’ll end up with General Motors.”#reading #MichaelCrichton #Disclosure #quotes #manufacturing #design #SocialObligation #offshoring #reconnectingConsequencesToCauses

Michael Crichton’s ‘Disclosure’ (which he says is based on a true story), 1st published in 1994, but still feels contemporary in lots of areas. Enjoyed the complicated plot & the product-based manufacturing problem solving. And then there was this:
“As for Meredith, her behaviour didn’t surprise him at all. For years, Sanders had fought the B-school mentality that she exemplified. After watching these graduates come and go, Sanders had finally concluded that there was a fundamental flaw in their education. They had been trained to believe that they were equipped to manage anything. But there was no such thing as general managerial skills and tools. In the end, there were only specific problems, involving specific industries and specific workers. To apply general tools to specific problems was to fail. You needed to know the market, you needed to know the customers, you needed to know the limits of manufacturing and the limits of your own creative people. None of that was obvious.”#reading #MichaelCrichton #problemSolving #Disclosure #BSchoolMentality #education #fundamentalFlaw #reconnectingConsequencesToCauses

30 years ago today, Twister was released upon us. Written by Michael Crichton (and Anne-Marie Martin), directed by Jan de Bont after Speed. This was a powerhouse disaster film. One of my personal favorites. #twister #90smovies #michaelcrichton #30years

Currently #reading a #MichaelCrichton story. Half way into the book, feels like the plot has went 180. A newly introduced character expressed her frustration that she had no idea what was going on, the main character had no idea what was happening, I have no idea what is happening.

I loved Jurassic Park movie back in 1993 but never read the book since I'm so into other genres, but now I'm considering to buy the book and read it before watch the movie again. Should I?
