The Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde1 is a novella written by the Scottish author Robert Louis Stevenson first published in 1886. It is about a London lawyer who investigates strange occurrences between his old friend, Dr Henry Jekyll2, and the misanthropic man Edward Hyde. The work is known for its vivid portrayal of the psychopathology of a split personality; in mainstream culture the very phrase "Jekyll and Hyde" has come to signify wild or polar behaviour.
The Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde was an immediate success and one of Stevenson's best selling works. Stage adaptations began in Boston and London within a year of its publication and it has gone on to inspire scores of major film and stage performances.
Synopsis
Everyone has a dark side. Dr Jekyll has discovered the ultimate drug. A chemical that can turn him into something else. Suddenly, he can unleash his deepest cruelties in the guise of the sinister Hyde. Transforming himself at will, he roams the streets of fog-bound London as his monstrous alter-ego. It seems he is master of his fate. It seems he is in complete control. But soon he will discover that his double life comes at a hideous price.

評分 評分《化身博士》发表于1886年,它与金银岛一起被称为斯蒂文森的成名作。 现在看来,这算是一个简单的故事。伦敦有名望的杰基尔医生研制出一种配方可以将自己变成另一个人海德,不仅是身体,还有灵魂--十恶不赦的灵魂。海德在深夜游荡在大街上,踩踏小孩子,打死老人。医生最终无...
All about my dual nature.
评分quite an arresting short story! 如果不是早知道小說的基本情節,這會是一本我想要一口氣讀完的小說,繼Mary Shelley的Frankenstein之後,Robert Louise Stevenson繼續探討科學和人性的關係,而這個話題在當下依舊應景,人工智能和人類有可能就會變成Dr Jekyll 和 Mr. Hyde,一旦人類的想法扭麯,那麼人工智能就有可能會成為邪惡的化身,最終導緻人類自身的滅絕。無論科技如何發展,Humanity是一個永遠躲不開的話題。
