Synopsis
Pringle's thoroughly researched survey into the preserved dead reveals not only the religious and cultural compulsion to mummify in, for example, the Egyptian tradition, but also time-worn mummification practices, the phenomenon of natural mummification, historical mummies, and the modern mummy black market.
