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.

评分 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。...
