All that remains by Sue Black

All that remains: a life in death by Sue Black. Doubleday 2018.

A different aspect to death – one which sparked conversations with my elderly mother.

I read this book, because I’ve heard Professor Dame Sue Black on a podcast – and forensics fascinates me (well, most science does). But I wasn’t expecting to learn so much about body donation for anatomy departments.

You can definitely hear Sue’s voice in the book – and she is entertaining and down-to-earth. I ended up reading bits out to my mother – hence the body donation chat, and subsequent internet research.
