From Here to Eternity, by Caitlin Doughty

Traveling the world to find the good death, Doughty investigates the rituals and traditions of other cultures while expanding our sense of what if means to treat the dead with dignity.

"It sounds a bit like Eat, Pray, Die, but her project is much larger than its premise first implies. She is searching not for personal spiritual enlightenment or the morbid titillation of thana-tourism, but for practical, radical alternatives to our corporatized death industry. Her travels illuminate a host of compelling possibilities for better funerals and a less fraught relationship with our dead."
