CRICHTON USES GENETICS TO SCARE THE HELL OUT OF US

Michael Crichton announced the publication of his new book, "Next," on his Web site. According to a press release, it takes readers into the fast, furious, out of control world of genetics.

It's a swing from his last book "State of Fear," which is currently a choice in the Mailbox's Book Club. It's a book about how the theory of global warming is challenged, and how it's really nothing to worry about. So, MC is going from "Nothing to worry about," to "HIDE THE WOMEN AND CHILDREN! IF THEY REALLY ARE YOUR CHILDREN, THAT IS!" Huh?

The Mailbox still thinks MC is a great writer, and will continue to buy hardbacks of his books. Though MC has been painted inaccurately as a global warming naysayer, the appendix of "State of Fear" is worth the read.
