Who Owns the Dead?: The Science and Politics of Death at Ground Zero

Who Owns the Dead?: The Science and Politics of Death at Ground Zero

by JayD.Aronson (Author)

Synopsis

After the 9/11 attack on the World Trade Center, Chief Medical Examiner Charles Hirsch proclaimed that his staff would do more than confirm the victims' identity. They would attempt to return to families every human body part larger than a thumbnail. As Jay D. Aronson shows, delivering on that promise proved to be a monumentally difficult task.
