💀 What if the cure was worse than the disease?
Mummies, Cannibals and Vampires unearths the macabre history of European corpse medicine — when kings, nobles, priests, and even scientists consumed or applied human blood, flesh, bone, fat, and skin in desperate quests for healing. Vividly detailed and often shocking, this book reveals a forgotten chapter where medicine crossed into the realm of the grotesque.
