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.

读后感
我在路上捡到的兔子死了。我把它吃掉了。 K同学对此反应十分激烈。我试图向他阐明，我对尸体的这种处理没有伤害到任何人。他反问我，你会吃掉你的狗弟（我养的一只大白狗）吗？他用狗弟做比是因为知道狗弟是我的心肝宝贝。我说，会啊，它都死了。我很快觉得这个答案太过刺激，...
评分这本书我基本上是晚上看的…… 先是被标题吸引，以为是本讲僵尸的文化学著作，看了才知道其实是说尸体的…… 有点标题党的意思。 书里还有很多不太准确的翻译，不过不会严重的影响阅读。 书本身是很有意思的，毕竟在中国我们很少有这方面的消息，但是中国制造却和在任何领域一...
评分我承认，当我的小伙伴们发现这本书的关键词是“尸体”时有一瞬间的确惊呆了。在读这本书之前，我对尸体用途的最初了解来自学医的一位朋友，当然那也许是最普通的用途，医学解剖教学。其次，就是各种罪案美剧中的法医学鉴证了。也许，罪案美剧里的尸体并不能归并到美妙的“奇异...
评分7月10日中午拿到的书，立刻就放下即将看完的小说，我对这本科普书充满了好奇。虽然我是个比较胆小的人，但是在某些方面思想也比较超然。 在本书的第15页有段对白：玛丽勒娜回答说，对付人头，她没有问题。“就我而言，手叫我受不了。”她抬起眼来，“因为你抓着这么一个孤零零...
评分By 亂 死亡，在許多年輕人看來，只是疾病、衰老，以及各種個體不幸的終結。在哲學家眼裏，它可能是心靈的不息漫遊的拯救、不朽與永生。對於詩人來說，它意味著愛情的忠貞與背叛，世事的有常與無常。而在戰爭狂人的詞典裏，它僅僅代表著一串串冷冰冰的數字。它是武俠小說、抗戰...
用户评价
很浅，但是很有意思，读完心情非常好（。
评分Sad to see she actually tries so hard.
评分boring
评分轻松有趣的小科普书，但貌似不太严谨（比如涉及到中医的部分）
评分在GOODREADS上看到对这本书的评分是既有数量又有质量，所以好奇，借来阅读。可能因为在这本书之前刚刚阅读了一本非常欢乐的有关死亡的书籍，这本书相对比起来就显得黑暗了很多。首先对我来说，生词就多了很多，其次，作者更多谈论到的是对死尸的处理和用途的探讨，所以主题严肃了一点，但是也是读得大开眼界，汗毛直立。尤其是吃人肉的那一章节，祖国也是被点名很多。作者写得相当客观，有时看到一些也是忍俊不禁。现在犹豫要不要去读作者的其他书。
