In general the book talks about death in depth including different cultural beliefs and actions regarding the process. There is one description of animal sacrifice that is fairly explicit, and an intense recounting of circumstances to terminating a wanted pregnancy due to terminal illness and risk of miscarriage/early infant death, not only in regards to emotions and procedures but also the reactions of anti-choice protesters.mikaylawood's review

I started reading this only caus the cover loked intresting. Turns out it is about how diffrent cultroes approced death and their funeral and after death rituals.
Did I have any intrest to begin? No.
Do I now want to become a motrician? Also yes.
There was a few MINOR flaws that makes this book not 100% for me. So it lands on a
4.5/5
