About this title

Synopsis

The author reflects on his year spent observing new medical students dissect human cadavers, concluding that besides learning the biological truths of human existence, the students also gained insight into the cycle of life and death

Review

"A warmly engaging, cheerful and utterly winning book... as engrossing as any novel, as thoughtful as the most searching memoir, as suggestive as any contemporary scientific essay." --Fred Chappell, " The Raleigh News & Observer"
"Carter provides insight into a critical aspect of medical training, and an unusually intimate, even arresting, view of the bodies we have and the bodies we will become." --"Publishers Weekly"
"[A] compelling book...The author treats all parties, living and dead, with honesty, respect, and kindness throughout." "--""The Bloomsbury Review"
