Some people always read the book before seeing the movie adaptation of it: They want to get the real story before it's rewritten for film and imagine what all the characters look like before the wrong actors are chosen to play them.
Charles Darwin first used adaptation in 1859 to describe how an organism adapts and changes to become better suited to living in its habitat. Since then, the noun adaptation is often used to describe a change in behavior in response to new or modified surroundings, from learning to outrun a predator to wearing earplugs to block out your noisy neighbors. Or even changing that novel a bit to fit the demands of the big screen.
