"This book is about Susan’s life and career in forensic anthropology. Some of it is not for the faint of heart but it is always interesting and informative and at times, quite funny. She has faced danger and acute sadness but managed to rise above it in her own particular way.
The shadow world of the dead is somewhere most of us fear to tread but Susan tells her stories with love and respect. Her kind of work is the last kind of service that many of us will get. Above all she is a super role model for her students and other young people. We need more people like this wonderful lady." - Amazon Customer Reviews

  • Mô tả

Sue Black confronts death every day. As a Professor of Anatomy and Forensic Anthropology, she focuses on mortal remains in her lab, at burial sites, at scenes of violence, murder and criminal dismemberment, and when investigating mass fatalities due to war, accident or natural disaster.

In All That Remains she reveals the many faces of death she has come to know, using key cases to explore how forensic science has developed, and examining what her life and work has taught her.

Do we expect a book about death to be sad? Macabre? Sue's book is neither. There is tragedy, but there is also humour in stories as gripping as the best crime novel.

Part memoir, part science, part meditation on death, her book is compassionate, surprisingly funny, and it will make you think about death in a new light.
