The story of what happens to the human body after death, including rituals, cause of death, preservation, and recycling of the corpse. From a technical point of view the book is well written and accurate. However the author has a distracting tendency to list - for example, when discussing murders, she lists all manner of murders, almost as if she was being paid by the name. Other than that, this was a good book and worth the time to read. ( )
