### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ How ME works
*by K***Y on February 5, 2013*

I actually work for the ME office and wanted to know what others that do this job, think about the job etc............The chapter on donors was very good. Lots of issues have risen with the almost FORCED DONATION people have to face. I am glad some of that was brought up. Interesting to hear how all of the donation legislation is passed with very little imput from the people on the front lines of this. ME/nurses/docters. I know a lot of nurses who have removed donor from their drivers license because of the aggressive approach by the donation group. They will have it addressed in a living will. And let the family decide. The choice is taken totally out of the legal NOK's hands once DONOR is on your DL. They, the donor organization don't even have to tell family before they procede with organ donation. They may be non profit but they make a lot of money doing this. I think more light should be put on this legislation before it is passed.I too forget about the deceased as soon as my investigation is done. Its the only way to keep doing this job, and I was glad to hear that is how others cope too. Sympathy but not empathy.................or you will never get through the day..............and it drives me nuts when I am constantly asked how I do it, blah blah, you either can or you can't.............I usually just tell people I work for the "county" when I am asked what I do for a living..........Not easy reading book and not for everyone.................. but well worth it

very good

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Postmortem: How Medical Examiners Explain Suspicious Deaths (Fieldwork, Encounters and Discoveries)
*by B***R on April 7, 2007*

Not a fun read...qusi scientific with enough detail to satisfy anybody shor of a fourth year med student...lots of details such as what is the difference between a medical Examiner and a Coroner...a walk through of a autopsy of an unkown death and how the ME made critical decision as to how the person died.The author then goes into spacific areas of interest such as suicide...infant deaths...murder and the organ tissue trade.A criticism of this book to some might be that the author uses fictious names, places and ME's in telling his stories. Although he explain this in the preface and provides extensive notes and source material this may bother the purists among us, I didn't find it to be a problem.
