Spook
Just finished Spook, by Mary Roach, author of Stiff.
A good read, very much in the style of Stiff, but less fulfilling overall. The lengths to which people have tried, since the evolution of modern science to prove or disprove the paranormal are fascinating. Of course, the skeptics tend to use science, whereas the believers use assertion, hunch, and anecdote.
If you liked Stiff, read Spook. If you haven't read Stiff, I'd start there.
