The personal details that Gates supplies about himself are, he want to be a doctor , he enjoys and very good at science. No, I do not think the doctor was justified in calling him “an over achiever “ because Gates had a disability and needed the white doctor to help him, but instead the doctor was being rude because Gates was black. No, If Gates was white he would of told Gates to achieve his goal into becoming a doctor. 4.) Working Collaboratively: At the end of his essay, when
The monster is introduced to the reader from Victors point of view. This is a technique to influence the readers reaction since we already have our opinions on Victor Frankenstein due to previous events in the novel but later when the narration switches to Frankensteins monsters we read the story from a different perspective and learn that Victor is not a good man at all. The reader is also given a positive image of Victor Frankenstein. One of the first things we read is Robert Waltons opinions of him and from this we know that Walton saw him as a very successful, respected and good man. From the start of Victors narration, we are shown his character in a good light through the account of his childhood - "I, their eldest child, their plaything and their idol, the innocent and helpless creature bestowed on them by Heaven" We see from this quote that he's painting the picture that he is from Heaven, that he's such a good man who is of high importance.
Thus ‘Frankenstein’ was written following a vivid nightmare she had after talking about the experiment. As mentioned before, at the time the book was written, there were technological advances. This made everyone hungry for knowledge, some people purely because they wanted to become famous like Darwin. This was the case for Walton (the narrator).He wanted to be remembered as one of the greatest explorers known to man; ‘I shall satiate my ardent curiosity with the sight of a part of the world never before visited, and may tread a land never before imprinted by the foot of man.’ He believed that he had knowledge and that his quest to find more knowledge would end in prosperity. He said in his letter; ‘But success shall crown my endeavours.’ Victor Frankenstein also wanted knowledge; ‘It was the secrets of heaven and earth that I desired to learn...’ He wanted to have fame and fortune and to also be remembered by the future generations.
Charlie also worked so much that he ended up moving a cot into his lab to research, proving his avid enthusiasm. If he didn’t get an IQ boost, he would’ve never been able to do that. Secondly, Charlie pointed out in the beginning that he didn’t care that the intelligence wouldn’t last, and that he just wants to be able to experience it once. Even when he was being depressed about his mind regressing, he earnestly said that he didn’t blame anyone and that it was none of their faults. Charlie is a good person and was truly thankful for the operation.
In Blade Runner, Scott explores the innovative and exciting ideas associated with being able to create ‘perfect’ life, however, he suggests that cloning technology can be dangerous for humankind when creations are just as intelligent and strong as humans. The Replicants are described as “more human than human” by Tyrell, their creator, when he tells Roy Batty, “You were made as well as we could make you”. However, despite being shown to be perfect, this is shown to be fraught with danger for humankind as they are lethal in their quest to reach Tyrell and compel him to give them more life. Early in the film, Deckard gets given the job “retiring” the NEXUS 6 Replicant’s that “…Slaughtered twenty-three people and jumped a shuttle…”
After putting everything together he was very proud of himself and absolutely admired the monster’s features because he specifically hand picked the best of the best corpse as he describes, “His yellow skin scarcely covered the work of muscles and arteries beneath; his hair was of a lustrous black, and flowing; his teeth of a pearly whiteness….” (42). Frankenstein was amazed with this hideous creature that he has been trying to put together for 2 years. Finally it was the spark of lightning/fire that completed this puzzle piece and brought Frankenstein’s monster to life. And upon coming to life from the spark, the creature, “..Was ugly then, but when those muscles and joints were rendered capable of motion, it became a thing such as even Dante could not have conceived.”(43). This shocked
Galton influenced his successors and was influenced by many of his predecessors, namely his half-cousin, Charles Darwin and Darwin’s work entitled The Origin of Species. Galton drew from what others had established and extended those findings. He desired to improve the human race with his findings in eugenics but lacked some crucial pieces to the puzzle he developed. He asked all the “right” questions but drew the wrong conclusions. Although the modern day public may dismiss some of his ideas as backward or non-progressive, Galton was a genius among men; Galton published many works that introduced the scientific world to never-before conceived ideas and concepts.
Robert’s atomic bomb is a huge paradox. He, like Nobel, invented it to end wars, but his invention is known today for it’s use in wars and incomparable demolition abilities. In conclusion Rodger, Alford, and Robert are three of the greatest engineers of their field. Building off each others’ discoveries and ideas, they each placed a block in the building of demolition science. Simply put, they are similar in the field of their contributions, but the
DNA fingerprinting changed the world because of the amount of people it helped, also the amount of people that were caught because of it. Jeffery was born on January 9, 1950 in England. Inspired by his father who was an inventor, he became curious about science as a young boy. While in school, he excelled in both biology and chemistry and entered Oxford University to study biochemistry, which led him to earn his Ph.D. in 1975. In 1984 he created the tool known as genetic fingerprinting, which allowed him to identify individuals through their DNA.
One name that is still familiar with society today and still creates controversy all around the world is Adolf Hitler. This man touched and transformed the lives of many citizens around the world, targeting mostly minorities. His life started out with misery, being denied into art school then to gaining enough power to create his own political group Nazism and becoming Chancellor of Germany, a powerful dictator. Hitler was intelligent knowing who to target, the youth; his charisma shined and gave hope to his people. Everything in history could have been different if the treaty of Versailles was different and Germany was not in despair and desperate for a proper leader.
