Omschrijving

In <b>The Lost World</b>, the first in a series of books to feature the bold Professor Challenger&mdash;a character many critics consider one of the most finely drawn in science fiction&mdash;Challenger and his party embark on an expedition to a remote Amazonian plateau where, as the good professor puts it, &ldquo;the ordinary laws of Nature are suspended&rdquo; and numerous prehistoric creatures and ape-men have survived. &ldquo;Just as Sherlock Holmes set the standard&mdash;and in some sense established the formula&mdash;for the detective story . . . , so too has <b>The Lost World</b><i> </i>set the standard and the formula for fantasy-adventure stories . . . ,&rdquo; Michael Crichton writes in his Introduction. &ldquo;The tone and techniques that Conan Doyle first refined in<b>The Lost World</b> have become standard narrative procedures in popular entertainment of the present day.&rdquo;
