Summary: One of his best!
Comment: Like I have said before, I love Charles Panati's books! This, in my opinion, is one of his best ones. Very informative, as are all of his books. Great information in the right amount on every subject you could possibly want to know about death including how different forms of death were created such as the electric chair and guillotine, last will and testament of such historical figures as Hitler and Shakespeare and all the American presidents, list of the leading killing diseases and their origin, extinct animals, examining life span and the deterioration of the senses, thanatographies and much more! Anybody interested in this kind of stuff should deffinately buy this book.
Rating: 4
Summary: interesting
Comment: it's an interesting book filled with little known details about death and other endings. i was at a loss as to what rating to give the book. he wasted time on the extinctions, though he picked the largest extinctions, they are also some of the dullest. Too many pages were spent on wills and other mundane thing. but, when he discussed the deaths and last words of famous people throughout history, the book really picked up. but i can see how much research he put into the book, so i gave him four stars instead of three.
Rating: 5
Summary: The most used reference book in my library
Comment: I am amazed at how often I have to return to this book for information. It's unbelievable how often you'll need to look up information about plagues, wills, cemetaries, etc. Contains info about death, sex practices, extinctions, capital punishment, etc. Everything you ever wanted to know about death and dying!
