Rating: Summary: TIMELY Review: I was in the middle of reading Disclosure (I don't believe in fate) when my inlaws began to experience legal problems similar to the facts in the book Disclosure. The story is extremely interesting, but it was the page (or 2) the author devotes to the stigma or awkwardness we now always experience in the work place and our home life as well. Most revealing - and in my case - timely. Its an exciting read.
Rating: Summary: Mr. Crichton Review: In my opinion, DISCLOSURE is a very interesting book not only because of the fact that the man is raped but also the computer talk was cool. Good film too
Rating: Summary: Phenomenal Review: This book was much better than the movie. The plot is compelling and will draw in any reader with a shred of empathy in his body. A great, quick read.
Rating: Summary: Highly recomended to all readers! Review: Michael Chrichton, one of the best author today, describes each element with a great deal of detail and I like that. In the novel Disclosure, he focus on a very senstive topic- Sexual harrasment. Tom Senders who works at DigiCom was in line of becoming the new vice president of the company. Then he find out that Mardeth Johnson(his former lover) got the job of the vice president of the company. He come to her office to discuss some bussiness meeting; but, she sexually harrased him. The next day, she accused Tom of harressing her sexually. You have to read the rest to know what happend. Two-thumbs-up for Chrichton.
Rating: Summary: A thrilling twist in rolls! Review: The book that I read was about this guy Tom Sanders who's a happily married man who works at DigiCom. The book starts out with him thinking he's going to get a promotion to vice president at his job. He find out that he didn't get the job but his ex-lover did and he hasn't seen her for nine years. That night they have a private meeting in her office to talk about some problems on the equitment line. She ends up throwing herself on him and he doesn't won't her because his married. I reason I liked this book was because usually its the guy that throws himself on the girl but in this book the rolls are switched. I think that every reader will like this book.
Rating: Summary: VERY GOOD! Review: One of Crichton's best novel. I think that Crichton is a wonderful author and he has a great writing style. I found that Disclosure was a very entertaining, and educational. It's a known fact that after Crichton wrote Disclosure that the internet was more popular than ever. I thought that the beginning was just plain great. It dragged a little in the middle and the book but then bounces write back up. The characters are developed a little. Don't get me wrong, I thought there was good character development but i think that Crichton should have consintrated just a tiny bit more character development on Sanders, all the other characters were greatly developed. So, over all; I give Disclosure by Michael Crichton five stars!
Rating: Summary: Very Interesting Review: The story was very good. I actually had a hard time putting this down. So, it became a quick read. One thing I do have to say is this; being a man if the situation was reversed and Tom was a woman, I wouldn't have gave much thought to it. Hear about sexual harrasment all the time in the media. But reversing the situation made me actual look at the problem and realize what most women will go through in these problematic times.
Rating: Summary: Truly Entertaining! Review: This book is a page-turner! Crichton mixed a very interesting computer-insustry with a gripping and very true sexual harassment case. It's true that women do do this and they always get away because the media doesn't cover them and women could just sat that they have been harassed and the media would be all over the case. Well, anyways this book is great!
Rating: Summary: Michael Crichton's best book yet Review: Tom Sanders is head of a department at the computer company Digicom. When two companys merge Meridth Johnson(Toms former lover) gets a premotion Tom expected to get now Meridith is Tom's boss. Meridith comes on to Tom sexually and Tom refuses. Then Meridith claims Tom sexually harrassed her. I picked up Michael Crichton's novel Disclosure expecting a book that once I got into it I would have trouble putting it down, and that is exactly what I got. I am personaly a big fan of Michael Crichton's work, he never fails to interest me and this book is Crichton at his best. Read this book, it is excellent.
