Corruption In Mary Shelley's Frankenstein

Due to Victor’s drastic mental and physical sacrifices to endure to process of making such a being, he put himself in a position of vulnerability to the cruelty and hatred that grew within his monster’s isolation, which ultimately targeted his family causing him to experience the reality of his success. Through the creation process Victor did not stop to realize the consequences of what he was doing, he did not think of the possibility that what he was trying to accomplish would rain havoc on society as well as himself, “Justine, poor unhappy Justine, was as innocent as I, and she suffered the same charge; she died for it; and I am the cause of this- I murdered her, William, Justine, Henry-they all died by my hands”(Shelley 157).

Certain cases should not be done robotically because there is no evidence to support it and it’s not cost-effective” (quoted in General Surgery News)” ((Luscombe, “Medical robots- the future of surgery?”). Along with the risk of infection, death, where responsibility lies if a problem arises, and component malfunctioning, there is also the risk that doctors are misusing said technology for operations.

Hospitals are thinking in terms of practicality and not safety, they have more faith in these machines than they should. Though there is a bright and promising future for
