Reddit mentions of Stiff: The Curious Lives of Human Cadavers

Have you read The American Way Of Death? First published in 1963 but still so relevant, if not more so now since the death industry has gotten ever more savvy and predatory.

Profits of Death and to a lesser extent Mary Roach's Stiff also do a good job puncturing that shitty industry.

Thanks for the contest!

For more possibilities about what could happen to a body after a donation, I heartily recommend the book Stiff: The Curious Lives of Human Cadavers by Mary Roach. It is a very interesting book with a few laugh out loud descriptions.
