Stiff: Chunk 3 + Q's

Stiff has a proved to be a truly entertaining, and informing literary experience. It constantly presents information in a humorous manner that keeps the reader engaged while giving information that wouldn't usually have any comedic value. It also gives death a new viewpoint by showing many of the positive discoveries found from experiments conducted with cadavers. The use of sensory details aids in experiencing the text for the adventure that it is. Each chapter thoroughly exploring an new experience the dead have/might/can/will endure: such as head transplants, freezing, rotting under supervision, being shot at, being used as a crash test "dummy", and other oddly interesting things. It was also interesting to see the author contemplating where she wanted to be done with her body after her departure from this world, and the different inquiries she made, even though she later came to the conclusion that if she left before her husband it was his choice.

Questions:

1) When considering how to handle dead bodies in the book Roach constantly refers to the environment twards the end of the book, do think the environment should be considered in body disposal? If not what should be considered instead? If you consider the environment what disposal method do you think most benefits the environment?

2) After reading through the book once think about which chapter you would reread, which would it be? Why did you choose it? Are there any chaptes that you would edit in any way?
