Working Stiff
Two Years, 262 Bodies, and the Making of a Medical Examiner
Judy Melinek
This memoir follows a young forensic pathologist's training in NYC, including two of the city's most traumatic events: the September 11 terrorist attacks and the anthrax bio-terrorism attack. Judy Melinek's daily life performing autopsies and investigating death scenes is action-packed and loaded with mordant wit. Through the murders, accidents, and suicides she encounters, Dr. Melinek lays bare the truth behind the glamorized depiction of autopsy work seen on shows like CSI and Law and Order. Her firsthand account reveals the secret story of the real morgue.

Working Stiff by Judy Melinek. I’ve read a lot of medical books but this one is top tier. Very interesting if you’re fascinated by death. – fuente
