Description

Forensic expert Alexey Resheton (better known as the livejournal blogger mossudmed) knows death firsthand. He deals with it every working day for 17 years—the very causes of death are his object of study. That means he knows better than anyone why we die and what not to do so you don’t end up on the autopsy table too soon. Readers of his blog quickly quit smoking, drinking, and start doing sports. He doesn’t preach morals—he simply shows what everything ends up as if you keep going the same way. His book is by no means a scientific work or a textbook. It is aimed primarily at people who are infinitely far from medicine, so you won’t find complicated terms. Instead, you’ll learn how a forensic expert works, how he differs from a pathologist, how he conducts autopsies, where he puts the extracted organs, and what surprising stories fill each of his working days. By telling us about what we often don’t want to pay attention to, the author makes us rethink an old truth in a new way: our life—and death—depends on us ourselves.
