A fascinating insight into a field of never considered before. If I or anyone close to me ever becomes a victim of a mass fatality event, Jensen is definitely the person I'd like to be working in the aftermath.
I did not expect to be so moved by this book, but am happily so as the author shows how kindness and respect can make a huge difference to those who's loved ones have been killed and their remains and possessions scattered in an explosion, a flood or a collision.
I found Jensen's dedication and mindset admirable, even if at times I wondered if he was just a bit too sure of his own righteousness.
Definitely a recommended read.
