I couldn't read it if it were disrespectful (I don't mind a sense of humor though, I even prefer it) or even too personal but the science of it is so interesting and yet seems so taboo. There is so much fear and the facts can be helpful. I do want to know about (most of) those things and CSI and books about the Body Farm get my attention. I'll have to look for this book. I never heard of it before I read your review. Thanks for the info! I think this information is fascinating.

While we all found some parts a bit creepy, it was fascinating! I just loved reading the reality of things that are part of my favorite types of books and tv shows. Highly recommended! <br/><br/>We had our book club meeting in the hospital cafeteria - couldn't swing a tour of the morgue though.
