How did modern cemeteries, hearses and coffins appear? How does the funeral industry work in different countries? Why are cemeteries in Russia so different from Western examples? To answer these questions, the author of the book — Sergei Mokhov, examines funeral practices from the point of view of competing business models.
The rapid development of new technologies in the XXI century leads to a rethinking of the human body, its boundaries, and the invention of new concepts of immortality, which jeopardize the old model of the funeral industry. What are we facing today — the rebirth or death of the funeral industry?
