Bronwyn Wylie-Gibb of University Book Shop Dunedin reviews This Mortal Coil: A History of Death by Andrew Doig, published by Bloomsbury. Bronwyn says: It's a fascinating history of how and why we've died in the past and how changing our lives has changed our deaths. Erudite, clear and surprisingly lively!
