This book will really give you the creeps. It is scary to think of what can be going on right under your nose. I know that it doesn't happen everywhere, and Cheney makes it quite clear that not all Funeral Homes, Universities, Hospitals and other institutions don't treat the deceased like this, but just knowing that some are willing to sell your loved ones is scary.

This book is very disturbing- yet I couldn't put it down. Really made me think and opened up my eyes.

Wow quite interesting and a wild ride. I'd like to see a follow up book to this

This was so wild to read about, especially as someone about to go to med school

I love this body. I’m obsessed with anything that has to do with forensic. I hate myself cause I have it as a gift. To some else and they never read and lost it

Eye opening and disturbing - this book is having me rethink leaving my body to science! I'd almost rather be eaten by a shark or lion!
All joking aside, though, the issue of 'donating' ones remains is one that people need to research a lot more closely if they are thinking about doing so.

I think it's time to give the dead/undead(?) a rest.... or at least to explore some fiction titles :o) My conversations are getting a little morbid....

I have a morbid fascination with this subject in general (though more with old school body snatching than modern incarnations), but this didn't really dig much further than what I already knew. All the same, it was more chilling that I'd been expecting, maybe because it hit closer to home.

An expose of the funeral industry. I read it for research, but once I got into it, I couldn't put it down. Creepy, compelling and pretty disturbing, even for me.

Horrible! Worst read yet!

Very interesting. If you are intrigued by this sort of thing, you should definitely check the book out. It's actually on my list to read again at some point, just as a refresher.

Highly informational about the underground trade in a highly profitable commodity, my body. Book got a little tedious and detailed in many places with regards to names and dates which got really confusing. I just skipped over them and kept going. Good information to read about and store in the back of your mind for idle party chitchat.
