4. I really enjoyed Roach's humor throughout the book, without it I truly doubt if I would've wanted to finish reading it. In my opinion, scientific experts would enjoy reading Stiff because it's pleasantly different from the regular literature they would probably enjoy reading.
ReplyDelete6.If I was a surgeon, most likely I would just have to imagine the people I'm operating on as toys or something that would make it easier for me to deal with. The scents I would just have to deal with, I can't think of ways for getting around that.
1. No i am not going to donate my body to research becuase i dont want to see myself being touched by other people and used for improving mankind.(we all got to die sometime)
ReplyDelete2.Well death is a natural thing and nobody lives on for ever Its just the timing of when people shold die becuase theres alot of kids out there that sholdnt be dead but they are. and theres some gangsters otu there that should be dead but they are alive. Yes i do believe that there is a afterlife becuase somethign had to create us. we coldnt have just poped out of nowere.somehting had to be there to start us off..
