Would you be buried, burned, sunk or pickled? Or turned into a diamond, embalmed like Lenin, or shot into space like Star Trek's Scotty? "The Dying Game" is a rollercoaster history of everything that has, could, and does befall a corpse - from the bizarre and macabre death rituals of ancient and modern cultures, to the morbidly fascinating biological, ethical, and legal story that begins only when we end. A brilliant book of the dead that's both gruesomely entertaining and exhaustively informative, Melanie King's in-depth investigation will show you that, as far as the physical body is concerned, death is far from the end of the story. Essential reading for both the cultural adventurer and the morbidly curious, "The Dying Game" reveals everything you never knew (and didn't know you wanted to know) about the last taboo: Death.
