Long hailed as one of the great science fiction classics, H.G. Wells The Island of Doctor Moreau tells the story of Edward Prendick, a shipwreck survivor who is brought to an uncharted island where he encounters Doctor Moreau, a mad scientist bent on experimenting with human/animal hybrids.Described by Wells himself as an exercise in youthful blasphemy, this story is a disturbing and fascinating look into the moral responsibility of scientific experimentation, the ethics of meddling with the natural world and, ultimately, what it means to be human.
