Society of Mutual Autopsy : ウィキペディア英語版 | Society of Mutual Autopsy
The Society of Mutual Autopsy (or French: ''la Société d'autopsie mutuelle'') was established on 19 October 1876 by members of the Society of Anthropology of Paris in Paris, France. ==History== Its purpose was to facilitate research on any links between personality, ability and brain morphology by creating a system whereby members' bodies, upon death, would be donated to the organization for study. Its primary tool to organize these donations was a sort of living will which accomplished two main tasks. The first was to make clear the intention of the donor to have his or her body delivered to the organization upon death. The second was to present to the organization a description of the donor: the donor's personality, skills, habits, faults, etc. to allow for more complete research by the organization on the connection between these and brain morphology. Though little-known outside of anthropological circles until recently, it has been the subject of some academic study, and is featured in the 2003 book ''The End of the Soul Scientific Modernity, Atheism, and Anthropology in France, 1876–1936'' by historian Jennifer Michael Hecht.
