#5. Spook: Science Tackles The Afterlife

Title:

Spook: Science Tackles The Afterlife

Author:

Mary Roach

Genre:

Humorous Research/Non-Fiction

Synopsis:

An examination of the scientific studies done in an attempt to work out what happens to us after death, whether the soul can be measured and other such ideas.

Verdict:

I enjoyed it but not as much as ‘Stiff’. It felt a little vague and forced at times, no doubt because you can’t form proper scientific conclusions about something so philosophical which can’t be answered by the living and the dead have yet to comment.
