Frankenstein Study Guide (Literature Study Guides from Progeny Press)

Story Summary: Forget Boris Karloff! The real story is scarier, because it examines real, human desires and capabilities. A brilliant student, Victor Frankenstein, comes upon the knowledge of creating life. Expecting glory and hoping to benefit humanity, Frankenstein creates a man--only to discover that creation carries more consequences and responsibilities than he foresaw. The resulting tragedy speaks directly to some of the issues facing us in science and medicine today.
