fusion of science and history

An excellent book that fuses together the history of ancient egypt with pathology, science and real-life stories from both present day and the past. The book attempts to put a real face on the lives of Ancient Egyptian people--not just the pharoahs, but the real people. Don't read it over food, but a wonderful read and beautifully photographed!

Great Book, many interesting facts!

This was really a great book, it included many interesting facts about how the actual mummy was embalmed. Rosalie David can thoroughly describe in detail the act and progression of mummy embalming through time! Great Book! A+

Informative and Entertaining

This was one of the few nonfiction books I've read that caused me to sacrifice sleep for reading. It contains almost entirely new information (to me) but includes comprhensive background information to put everything into perspective. It is well written and entertaining. I would recommend this book to anyone with an interest in mummies.
