An oddly compelling, often hilarious exploration of the strange lives of our bodies postmortem.

For two thousand years, cadavers-some willingly, some unwittingly-have been involved in science's boldest strides and weirdest undertakings. They've tested France's first guillotines, ridden the NASA Space Shuttle, been crucified in a Parisian laboratory to test the authenticity of the Shroud of Turin, and helped solve the mystery of TWA Flight 800. For every new surgical procedure, from heart transplants to gender reassignment surgery, cadavers have been there alongside surgeons, making history in their quiet way.

In this fascinating, ennobling account, Mary Roach visits the good deeds of cadavers over the centuries-from the anatomy labs and human-sourced pharmacies of medieval and nineteenth-century Europe to a human decay research facility in Tennessee, to a plastic surgery practice lab, to a Scandinavian funeral directors' conference on human composting. In her droll, inimitable voice, Roach tells the engrossing story of our bodies when we are no longer with them.

"Uproariously funny ...informative and respectful...irreverent and witty...impossible to put down." ~ Publishers Weekly

"Not grisly but inspiring, this work considers the many valuable scientific uses of the body after death." ~ Library Journal

"One of the funniest and most unusual books of the year." ~ Entertainment Weekly

#Mary Roach#的《Stiff》的中文版《僵尸的奇异生活》翻译得正经有余趣味不足，有些地方准确性尚待商榷，比如“ You cut off heads. You cut off heads. You cut off heads.”被翻译成“你这个刽子手，你这个刽子手”，但原文所指的只是医学院助教人员移除尸体头部，哪来杀人行...

在我们中国人的哲学中，似乎很忌讳死。当然，死在文人墨客的笔下，也可以描述的很悲壮，比如古诗中有专门的悼亡诗，但总体上，我们提到死，是讳莫如深的，是避之不及的。对尸体，应该说，尤其如此，所以，湘西赶尸人成了众说纷纭的一个传说，嗯，只是传说。在拿到这本书之前...

这无疑是一本很好看的书。书名有很大的误导，以为是一本鬼怪小说。其实不然，要知道，我是鬼怪和科普都很热爱的好小孩。作者是一位身在美国的女人。古怪的是，为什么这种书的作者和读者都是女性居多？而且这个作者的老公也是那种无论对活人肢体还是死人肢体都非常敏感的男性。...

没有看过本书的童鞋们，别被标题误导。我说的是死亡之后肉体的旅程，而不是灵魂。这并不是恐怖电影或者Discovery的节目，这仅仅是文字。然而不可否认你会被这镇定而内敛的文字冲击，也许这力道并不亚于直观的视觉冲击。（同时我要说，译者的文笔功力相当到位）。人死后，肉...
