Footprints without Feet
Think about it
1. “Griffin was rather a lawless person.” Comment.
2. How would you assess Griffin as a scientist?
Talk about it
1. Would you like to become invisible? What advantages and
disadvantages do you foresee, if you did?
2. Are there forces around us that are invisible, for example,
magnetism? Are there aspects of matter that are ‘invisible’ or not
visible to the naked eye? What would the world be like if you could
see such forces or such aspects of matter?
3. What makes glass or water transparent (what is the scientific
explanation for this)? Do you think it would be scientifically possible
for a man to become invisible, or transparent? (Keep in mind that
writers of science fiction have often turned out to be prophetic in
their imagination!)
