The Resurrection Men by Brian Bailey

Body-snatchers - resurrection men - were responsible for a unique episode in British history. They flourished in the late 18th and early 19th centuries, when medical students needed a regular supply of cadavers from which to learn anatomy. This account of the gruesome acts committed to ensure that the dissection tables were kept in use covers the main centres of activity, London and Edinburgh, as well as the rest of Britain.
