Stiff The Curious Lives of Human Cadavers and Corpse Paperback Book Bundle

Comes w both books in bundle. Stiff The Curious Lives of Human Cadavers By Mary Roach -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 confirmation surgery, cadavers have helped make history in their quiet way. Stiff investigates the strange lives of our bodies postmortem and answers the question: What should we do after we die? Corpse - Nature , Forensics, and the Struggle to Pinpoint the Time of Death By Jessica Snyder Sachs When detectives come upon a murder victim, there's one thing they want to know above all else: When did the victim die? The answer can narrow a group of suspects, make or break an alibi, even assign a name to an unidentified body. But outside the fictional world of murder mysteries, time-of-death determinations have remained infamously elusive, bedeviling criminal investigators throughout history. Corpse is the fascinating story of the 2000 year search to pinpoint time of death. It is also the terrible and beautiful story of what happens to our bodies when we die. Fast shipping.
