It was a while ago. I attempted to read "Stiff." I didn't finish I'm pretty sure. I think my opinion of Roach suffered as I had recently read both Complications and possibly also Better by Atul Gawande and I found I enjoyed his writing style much more, while bth authors were discussing similar subject matter (bodies, medicine). The book seemed "pop"-py to me. It was not as bad as Gladwell (I read "Blink" and hated it) but I remember feeling as if the subject could have been covered better by others.
