• Absolutely absorbing! You must read this book. Fascinating account of death by someone with enormous experience in this field. I don’t wish to repeat the previous review, but I totally agree. The author has the ability to avoid too much technical detail, has a great sense of humour and makes an often awkward subject approachable and personal. You will not be disappointed.
• I absolutely loved this book. Not only was the information enlightening, but it was presented in a forthright yet compassionate manner. Ms. Black is a shining example of everything those in her profession should aspire to be. Superb reading!

• A fascinating book about a subject that is often frightening or disturbing, but is inevitable, death. The author is as much an expert on the subject as anyone living can claim to be, a professor of anatomy and forensic anthropology, as well as passing on her considerable knowledge to her students, she has also worked with the police to help identify remains, and even travelled to the sites of international disasters and warzones to aid in the massive task of identifying victims.
  While never stinting on the scientific aspects of her work, such as how the body changes after death, and how even partial remains can be used for identification, she is not afraid to bring a more personal and human tone, talking about her first experiences with a dead family member, and most movingly about the deaths of her parents. This personal aspect added another dimension to the book , giving a real human interest aspect as we learn about what motivated the author to take up her profession, and why she has such a passion for its continuing place in the education of future doctors and scientists.
  One of the most fascinating things discussed in the book was what happens when somebody donates their body to science, something few of us really consider. The care and respect that goes into the process as a whole as well as the science behind it made for some very interesting reading..
  I would highly recommend this book for anyone with an interest in science or forensics , its a fascinating and compelling book, both intense and entertaining,
