好书。适合任何阶段的任何人群。未知死,焉知生。死生一条。太多的地方该做笔记,可惜我懒。
评分Great book. Very informative. Also really really funny.
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)
评分叹为观止。=D
评分Entertaining for sure, but can get draggy at certain points. Still overall a good read

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
New York Times National Best-Seller
作者旁征博引,为了写这本书还是做了不少准备。 转移大脑的实验还是很有价值的。 12世纪的阿拉伯世界有“蜜人”,只吃蜂蜜,后来变成药材。然而这是本草纲目中的记载。 人们用木乃伊入药,用各个部分做成药粉。书的口味有点重。看着倒是挺长见识,一些细节的地方以前也没怎么听...
评分 评分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...
评分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...
