{"product_id":"9780714119625-secondhand-mummy-the-inside-story","title":"Mummy: The Inside Story","description":"The 3,000 year-old mummy of the Egyptian priest Nesperennub has never been removed from its beautifully painted case, but now the latest non-invasive imaging technology has revealed what lies inside. Combining CT scanning with leading-edge computer graphics, scientists have created the world's first virtual mummy - a three-dimensional rendering of the body that can be viewed interactively. This has made it possible to carry out a 'virtual unwrapping' which answers many questions about Nesperennub: How old was he? What did he look like? What diseases did he suffer from? How was he mummified? In a sequence of startlingly clear images this book takes the reader on a tour inside the mummy, to examine the skull, bones, internal organs and the objects placed inside the wrappings: amulets to ensure magical protection, and a unique and enigmatic bowl, perhaps left on the body as the result of an 'accident' in the embalming workshop.","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49208740937947,"sku":"9780714119625-SECONDHAND","price":8.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/7c38f569-7332-45f3-8df2-32d659937867.jpg?v=1788258279","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/9780714119625-secondhand-mummy-the-inside-story","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
