Woosang (Australia) (2007/12/13): A fascinating book about the body farm in Tennessee and a autobiography of sorts of Bill Bass. As Dr Bass started the Body Farm to find out what happens to bodies as they decompose, it would have been an incomplete history without his story and memories. Well written, highly readable, it includes many facts that some people would find gross and distasteful. I found I delighted in grossing out my husband and some work collegues in the parts I found very interesting. The prose is respectful to the people who have their corpse in the body farm and who provide some much valuable data to solve murders and therefore lead to the conviction of murders and arsonists.
Excellent book and highly recomended. Sandra (Österreich) (2008/07/09): Definitively one of the best non-fiction books I've ever read. If not the best.
