Good stuff, if you’re into the whole forensic science, rotting body scene. And I am—I majored in anthropology (specializing in archaeology), and read several technical books way back then.

This book is a lot more chatty - maybe a bit too chatty - but still has lots of good information that would allow you to track down the real papers and texts if you wanted to. I’m not sure I want to go that far just yet, but I almost wish I’d gone to grad school at UTK.
