Literally one of the best nonfiction books I've ever read!!! Although somewhat gruesome (as you'd expect a book a bout dead bodies to be lolz), this book is extremely funny and informative. 10/10 would recommend :>

A fascinating look into the lives of cadavers! This book covers the real lives of a human after they die! The author gets into what could happen, and what does happen to a human cadaver, along with the possibilities for change in the industry.

This was a fascinating look at what happens to the human body once dead. From organ donation to donation to science and a variety of ongoing debates about souls and disposal of human remains - Stiff covers it all. It’s all the things you didn’t know you wanted to learn about corpses.
