In the 21st century we discovered the structure of DNA - the nucleic acid contains the genetic information of fact every known living organisms -, cloned a mammal and Genetically Modified Organisms. This advances in science Herbert George Wells (1866-1946) Could not Foresee When he published his third novel, "The Iceland of Dr. Moreau", in 1896. But his story about the sinister scientist feels more than a hundred years later no longer just like fiction.
When Edward Prendick stranded on a remote Iceland Somewhere in the Pacific Ocean, he soon learns thatthis is not paradise here, this Iceland has some very strange creatures. "Every shadow Became something more than a shadow, Became an ambush, every rustle Became a threat." Prendick meets the suspicious scientist Dr. Moreau, become witness of a vivisection - Operations on living organisms - and learns the truth about the creatures, "... this extraordinary branch of knowledge has never been sought as en end ..." But then something goes terribly wrong and Prendick and the other men can only hope to survive.
From the beginng you are dragged into a very dark and dense story about the dangers it faces When He tries to manipulate nature. But Wells so raises some ethical questions. "It was not the first time That conscience has turned against the methods of research."
Before HG Wells Became a writer and established himself as a pioneer of science fiction, Wells worked as a teacher and journalist and had Studied biology at the Norman School of Science.
