Perhaps best known for the horror films it has spawned, Mary Shelley's ""Frankenstein"", published in 1818 and revised in 1831, is a tale that warns against the ""advancements"" of modern man and the Industrial Revolution. This still-potent story is given new life with this latest inclusion to the ""Bloom's Guides"" series. A sharp critical overview distills the symbolic essence of the work, while ""The Story Behind The Story"" section enhances a student's overall comprehension of Frankenstein's historical background.
