Stripped down to its sellable parts, the recycled human body can be repackaged and sold for around 200 thousand dollars. Skin and bone from the dead are part of a new resources boom. Over My Dead Body will make you think long and hard about the curious transactions humans make with each other over the recycling of the dead.
