Stiff: The Curious Lives of Human Cadavers, by Mary Roach. Stiff is an oddly compelling, often hilarious exploration of the strange lives of our bodies postmortem. For two thousand years, cadavers--some willingly, some unwit-tingly--have been involved in science's boldest strides and weirdest undertakings.
