Forensic expert on death, mortality, and crime solving. Everything that remains

What happens to the human body after death? Why do people tell each other stories about the resurrected dead? How can one dispose of their remains?

Birth and death are two constants in our lives that no one has yet managed... to avoid. However, we prefer to face death less often, if we have such an opportunity. What made the author choose a profession so closely related to it? Professor Sue Black, a pathologist and forensic anthropologist, studies human remains for legal and scientific purposes. From the fragments of a skeleton, she can determine the sex, race, age, and many other distinctive features of their owner. Sometimes this information decides the outcome of a trial; at other times, it helps to clarify historical events from a significant time ago.
Sue Black does not dramatize death and helps to unravel many questions related to it. So what is it that truly remains after us? It turns out, quite a lot!
