It's 1828 and you're a medical student at the world-famous
Edinburgh university. You are keen to start dissecting bodies to
learn all about anatomy, but be careful whom you buy your body from
- some people will do anything to get their hands on one! This book
explores the body-snatching craze that gripped 19th century
Britain, including the infamous Burke and Hare murders. The
humorous cartoon-style illustrations and the narrative approach
placing readers at the centre of the narrative history encourage
readers to get emotionally involved with the characters, aiding
their understanding of the darker side of 19th century science.
Informative captions, a complete glossary and an index make this
title an ideal introduction to the conventions of non-fiction texts
for young readers.
