Grant has written two books, one before and one after his experience of Isla Nublar, while Ian Malcolm has also published a book (here described as "too preachy" and with "too much chaos theory" in it).
Grant has not previously been to the island, although the Kirby’s think he has because they confuse Isla Sorna with the theme park island: Isla Nublar.
Given the genre, it would be no surprise to learn, for instance, that in Jurassic Park 4 the creation of "realistic" theme park dinosaurs on Isla Nublar was just a front for a hidden militaristic agenda to create genetically modified killing machines on Isla Sorna.

Unless there is something yet to be revealed in JPIV, the dinos on Sorna were the same dinos that were moved to Nublar, meaning they have the same damn DNA.
If the ones on Sorna were flourishing, then obviously the ones on Nublar could as well.

Under a concealing fog that covers the island, modern structures hide throughout its lush jungle, their purpose, and existence, forgotten by the world.
For those who do know of its existence, the island, named Isla Sorna (a strange name with morbid connotations in Spanish) is strictly and widely avoided, by the Costa Rican government, and by the genetics company that bought it from them in the early 1980's.
Most people in the world maintain that there were no dinosaurs and there is no Jurassic Park or SITE B. Nobody seemed to care enough to seek the truth about Isla Sorna, and it's incredible secret.
