      I was just reading about surgery in the 1800s.

      The unpalatable truth was that without the body snatchers and the thousands of corpses they had procured for anatomists during previous decades, Edinburgh would not have established its enviable global reputation for trailblazing surgery.

      Modern medicine owes a lot to those “resurrectionists.”
