Судебно-медицинский эксперт Алексей Решетун (более известный как жж-блогер mossudmed) знаком со смертью не понаслышке. Он имеет с ней дело каждый рабочий день вот уже 17 лет: собственно, ее причины и есть объект его изучения. А значит, ему лучше, чем кому бы то ни было, известно, почему мы умираем и что не надо делать, чтобы не попасть до времени на секционный стол. Читатели его блога стремительно бросают курить, выпивать и начинают заниматься спортом. Хотя он вовсе не читает мораль: просто показывает, чем все закончится, если продолжать в том же духе. Его книга ни в коем случае не является научным трудом или учебником. Рассчитана она в первую очередь на людей, которые бесконечно далеки от медицины, так что вы не найдете в ней сложных терминов. Зато узнаете, как работает судмедэксперт, чем отличается от патологоанатома, как проводит вскрытие, куда девает извлеченные органы и какими удивительными историями наполнен каждый его рабочий день. Рассказывая о том, во что мы часто не хотим вникать, автор заставляет нас по-новому осмыслить старую истину: наша жизнь — и смерть — зависит от нас самих.
