Gresham and Turner are a morbid anatomist and a higher senier post mortem technician repectively. A large portion of their book consists of dissection techniques which are clearly described and richly illustrated. There is a lot of emphasis on procedures related to coroner’s cases, rightly so, since such cases probably form the majority of post mortems in non Metropolitan pathology department.
