A review by raehink
Dead Center: Behind the Scenes at the World's Largest Medical Examiner's Office by Shiya Ribowsky, Tom Shachtman

3.0

First half of the book: 4 stars for all the forensic information and a pretty clear and detailed description of the New York Medical Examiner's office and daily activity. I also enjoyed the personal information the author shared about his Jewish background.

Second half of the book: 2 stars for not being as good as the first half. I was disappointed that the World Trade Center bombings and subsequent victim identification process pretty much took over the rest of the book.

All in all, quite an interesting read.
