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.

讀後感
#Mary Roach#的《Stiff》的中文版《僵尸的奇异生活》翻译得正经有余趣味不足，有些地方准确性尚待商榷，比如“ You cut off heads. You cut off heads. You cut off heads.”被翻译成“你这个刽子手，你这个刽子手”，但原文所指的只是医学院助教人员移除尸体头部，哪来杀人行...

評分这本书我基本上是晚上看的…… 先是被标题吸引，以为是本讲僵尸的文化学著作，看了才知道其实是说尸体的…… 有点标题党的意思。 书里还有很多不太准确的翻译，不过不会严重的影响阅读。 书本身是很有意思的，毕竟在中国我们很少有这方面的消息，但是中国制造却和在任何领域一...

有趣
评分boring
评分太。棒。瞭。好久沒有讓我literally廢寢忘食的好書瞭。大概我口味重？完全沒有不適。科學而不失輕鬆幽默，tone and style抓得不要太好。大贊。
评分輕鬆有趣的小科普書，但貌似不太嚴謹（比如涉及到中醫的部分）
评分超贊的科普讀物，而且居然能讀到笑齣聲。隻是看完這本書，我隻萌生一個念頭：不想把自己的遺體捐掉。
