(4) 4-6 Be What You Want series. "Think your Goth lifestyle is a predictor of your future vocation"? This overly broad installment examines fields centered on dead things--from archaeology, forensics, and taxidermy to volcanology and "ghost hunting"--including the gritty details involved in the work. Interviews with professionals provide a personal touch to a dense text that can feel like a data dump. Reading list, websites. Bib., glos.
