To die, kick the bucket, to meet your Maker, dead as a doornail, get whacked, smoked, bite the dust, sleep with the fishes, go six feet under—whatever death is called, it's going to happen. In 1789 Ben Franklin wrote, "In this world nothing is certain but death and taxes." Death remains a certainty. But how do we die? It's the enormous variety of how that enlivens final exits. According to death certificates, in 1700 there were less than 100 causes of death. Today there are 3,000. With each advance of technology, people find new ways to become deceased, often causing trends that peak in the first year. People are now killed by everything, from cell phones, washing machines, lawn mowers and toothpicks, to the boundless catalog of man—made medicines. In Final Exits the causes of death—bizarre or common—are alphabetically arranged and include actual accounts of people, both famous and ordinary, who unfortunately died that way. (Ants, bad words, Bingo, bean bag chairs, flying cows, frozen toilets, hiccups, lipstick, moray eels, road kill, starfish, and toupees are only some of the more unusual causes.)

读后感
说实话这本书不那么有趣，至少不像简介里介绍的那样有趣，也不像看完目录后想象的那么有趣。比如“被老鼠要死”“被蚊子咬死”不过是说被这些东西要过后感染病毒死去。这实在是平淡无奇，跟被狗咬了得狂犬病而死有什么区别吗？ 不知是翻译的问题还是本就如此，书中文字非常直白...
评分这本书之前刚买到的时候，翻开看内容，跟我想象中的还是有些出入。介绍总是比较诱人，内容总是比较失望。但是还好，这么书写了各种各样的死的方式，看了有些有点好笑。我觉得还是不错的。因为有好多同学都找我借这本书看。
评分（一） 书里的有些数据看起来很有意思，比如每年死于棒球的有多少人，或者死于打嗝的有多少人。有时候会忘了将来自己也会变成统计数据之一。 不过大部分人的死亡平淡无奇，不是在自己家的床上，就是在医院的床上。这种死亡方式，不在《死亡大辞典》的收...
评分关于死亡的的方式那么多种，我原本以为死亡就只有那几种，没想到，竟然有那么多种。 看完不禁感慨。活着是多么得重要！
