Have you ever wondered what it would be like to get a tattoo? Or, maybe, you already have one. Did it hurt? Is it hidden? Revealed? Do you like it? Or are you filled with regrets? Everything you would want to know about the art of tattooing and body piercing can be found in this complete guide to the latest in the art of decorating one's skin. This book, sure to be of interest to adolescents, discusses the history of various forms of body marking, the current popularity of body piercing and tattoos, the how and why this 'art' is done, and some things to think about before choosing to be pierced or tattooed. Authors Gay and Christine Whittington trace the roots of body decorations and modifications from ancient cultures where tattoos were marks of ownership for slaves or punishment for criminals, to today's trends where celebrities and teens often sport both tattoos and piercings. The authors include good sections about safety precautions, as well as warnings about the social implications of body modification. The tone throughout remains neutral, and the text is well researched and well organized. Good-quality, full-color and archival photos appear throughout. 2002, Twenty-First Century Books, 112 pp.,
