Ah, those one word titles! Also, weirdly, I first heard of this book when one character recommends it to another in the HBO drama Six Feet Under.
You can reserve a copy of this online at South Dublin Libraries’ catalogue here.
Blurb:
What happens to your body after you have died? Fertilizer? Crash Test Dummy? Human Dumpling? Ballistics Practise?
Life after death is not as simple as it looks. Mary Roach’s Stiff lifts the lid off what happens to our bodies once we have died. Bold, original and with a delightful eye for detail, Roach tells us everything we wanted to know about this new frontier in medical science.
Interweaving present-day explorations with a history of past attempts to study what it means to be human Stiff is a deliciously dark investigations for readers of popular science as well as fans of the macabre.

This one has been on my TBR for ages, just because of the title, but I had no bloody clue what it was really about until now, though ;).
