Book Review: The Science of Vampires

For those of you that are into vampires but not into more then their fictional stories this is not the book for you. For those of you that have questions about the possibility of vampires and such then you might like this book.

I read this book mainly for research purposes but must say I enjoy it. It covers every aspect of vampires starting with how the myths might of began through purely scientific explanations (like did you know that some bodies may look like they were buried yesterday but be over 100 years in the ground?). It goes through the changes that happen in the body to become a vampire and once again scientific ways in which those changes might occur. It delves into the psyche of the vampire and those who believe themselves to be vampires (including many well known serial killers). And concludes itself in the many different magical aspects of a vampire that does have human counterparts........such as necromancy.


Now would I say that everyone read this book......no. But if you like scientific things or just knowledge or if your very much into vampires and would like to know more about them in a modern sense then by all means dive right in. It a short book of about 255 pages and a relatively light/easy read.

This is book/movie review number 3 (basically research #3) for me and I have to say things are fitting together a little better then I thought. Any idea as to what I might be reaserching? Or to what means?

As always thanx for reading.........
