description: Cannabalism is one of the last great taboos and it is now beginning to emerge as far more widespread than was previously thought. This book examines evidence ranging from protein analysis to studies of human bones that suggests that people-eating is a pervasive human signature, running through our species since the dawn of time. Divided chronologically and thematically - from serial killers to nutritional and medicinal cannibalism in modern-day China, "Cannibal" is a comprehensive look at cannibalism throughout the world.
