The plays story is set around that in 1828, Dr. Thomas Rock is a respected anatomist lecturing at a prominent medical school. He is deeply passionate about improving medical knowledge, a pursuit for which he believes "the ends justify the means." Unfortunately, due to the laws of the time very few cadavers are legally available to the medical profession, necessitating the use of body snatchers or "Resurrection men" by the medical establishment to procure additional specimens. Dr. Rock's young assistant Dr. Murray is given the task of buying the bodies, for which he is authorized to pay a small fortune, particularly for fresher corpses. With a new introduction by John Ormond. /// This is a 1st edition paperback in near to fine condition-the spine is slightly mis-coloured. (178 pages & 19 pages of introduction). Originally published in 1953.
