Perhaps a little peculiarly structured, but an incredible book with insane amounts of research and time put into it. I flip flopped back and forth between four or five stars, settling on a tentative four. Despite this, the quality of the work shouldn’t be underestimated.

Fascinating. I found it interesting and a great highlight of scientific/medical use of cadavers and history. The author is quirky and you get a sense of her personality throughout.
My favorite part “You cut off heads!!!”
