Aucune civilisation, des plus frustes aux plus "évoluées", n'a pu esquiver l'aspect dramatique du devenir du corps mort. Ses laideurs et ses puanteurs qui annoncent de pourrissement de la chair signent la dissolution de l'être. D'abord, retenir l'image du vivant est une démarche quasi universelle, ainsi que le vérifie la coutume extrêmement répandue de la toilette du mort. Mais très vite, c'est avec la pourriture qu'il faut jouer : horrible et fascinante, elle oriente tous les rites funéraires. Selon le trajet symbolique propre à chaque culture, tout est mis en oeuvre pour l'apprivoiser (exposition du cadavre), la cacher (linceul, sarcophage), l'enrayer définitivement (embaumement, momification, incinération, ingestion cannibalique, cyrogénisation) ou seulement la retarder (soins corporels, thanatopraxie), ou bien l'accélérer (exposition, abandon dans les tours de silence). Mais derrière tous ces usages se dessine une exigence universelle : stabiliser dans un support indestructible, dur et pur, l'être du défunt. Ce stade marque la réconciliation de la communauté avec son mort, une communauté apaisée qui peut enfin oublier que mourir, c'est pourrir. Louis-Vincent Thomas est l'auteur de nombreux ouvrages sur la mort, notamment Anthropolie de la mort, paru aux Editions Payot.

With the success of organ transplantation and the declining number of heart beating cadaver donors, the number of patients awaiting a transplant continues to rise. This means that alternative sources of donors have been sought, including donors after cardiac death. Such donors sustain rapid damage to their organs due to ischaemia, and as a consequence some organs do not work initially and some none at all. The proportion of such transplants has increased dramatically in recentyears- 25% of kidney transplants in the UK were from such donors in 2006 highlighting how much progress has been made.W

The emotional and social components of teaching medical students to be good doctorsThe pelvic exam is considered a fundamental procedure for medical students to learn; it is also often the one of the first times where medical students are required to touch a real human being in a professional manner. In Feeling Medicine, Kelly Underman gives us a look inside these gynecological teaching programs, showing how they embody the tension between scientific thought and human emotion in medical education. Drawing on interviews with medical students, faculty, and the people who use their own bodies to teach this exam, Underman offers the first in-depth examination of this essential, but seldom discussed, aspect of medical education. Through studying, teaching, and learning about the pelvic exam, she contrasts the technical and emotional dimensions of learning to be a physician. Ultimately, Feeling Medicine explores what it means to be a good doctor in the twenty-first century, particularly in an era of corporatized healthcare.

Commingled Human Remains: Methods in Recovery, Analysis, and Identification brings together tools from diverse sources within the forensic science community to offer a set of comprehensive approaches to resolving issues associated with commingled remains. This edition focuses on forensic situations, although some examples from prehistoric contexts are also addressed. Commingling of bones and other body parts is a major obstacle to individual identification that must be addressed before other forensic determinations or research can proceed. Regardless of the cause for the commingling
