Six Feet Over: Science Tackles the Afterlife by Mary Roach Book Summary

The best-selling author of Stiff  and Bonk trains her considerable wit and curiosity on the human soul.
"What happens when we die? Does the light just go out and that's that—the million-year nap? Or will some part of my personality, my me-ness persist? What will that feel like? What will I do all day? Is there a place to plug in my lap-top?" In an attempt to find out, Mary Roach brings her tireless curiosity to bear on an array of contemporary and historical soul-searchers: scientists, schemers, engineers, mediums, all trying to prove (or disprove) that life goes on after we die.

iBook version of Spook is Terrible. Mary Roach is an excellent, talented, and funny writer. She is by far my favorite author and I have read all 5 of her books, Spook most recently. However, the iBook version of Spook is crap. It should be advertised as "Spook-Lite", or "Kinda Like Spook But Not Really", or "Hey We Got Another Sucker to Buy What They Thought Was Spook". Mary Roach's insightful and clever footnotes at the bottom of many pages in all of her books aren't formatted that way in iBooks. Rather, they are all grouped together at the end with no correlation to the text and no way to easily switch back and forth…which is a pain anyway. Images are absent also. Buy a print version or skip it.

Entertaining and enlightening.. Well written and informative book.

Loved it. An irreverent romp into the world of ghost hunters and people searching for the afterlife. The author says she's not a skeptic looking to debunk the supernatural, but she's refreshingly grounded in science, bringing healthy questions and humor to the subject.

Spook. Funny and informative no 3d needed what a concept ..hk Clinton nj

Mary Roach's Spook is great...the iBook version a huge disappointment. I loved Mary Roach's book Spook. I read it first in hardcover, and due to loaning out and not getting the book returned, decided to repurchase it on Apple's iBooks. What a letdown. Mildly annoying are the lack of all the book's photos and graphics (apparently due to copyright infringements). Of much greater concern, and VERY damaging to the experience of reading the book, is that all the footnotes have been moved to the end of the book, and all coded with a single asterisk. So you finish the 291 page book, and then are presented with about 20 pages of asterisked footnotes it is impossible to relate to the text that they should accompany. Incredibly frustrating. Four stars for the book. One star for the terrible e-book version. Buy it conventionally!!!
