Abstract :Inspired by the French anthropologist Robert Hertz’s contributions to the sociology of death, a multidisciplinary research group, Refiguring Death Rites, at the Radboud University Nijmegen, Netherlands, has constructed a research project about body donation in Netherlands and Sophie Bolt, being a member of this group, has written this book as a basis of her dissertation. Sophie Bolt – a cultural anthropologist - provides significant insights into human behavior by her study on donation, motivation, death and conflict. Five out of six research chapters of the book including two appendices have already been published in precious journals like Annals of Anatomy or Anatomical Sciences International, previously.Keywords : When I Die, University A study, Netherlands
