What Your Dermatologist Never Told You
Early last week, after spending much of the past year conducting research in China and Kenya, Nina G. Jablonski landed on the pages of The New York Times Science Times. Jablonski, author of the recently published Skin: A Natural History, sat down with journalist Claudia Dreifus to discuss our largest, most visible, and arguably least appreciated organ: our skin. Even though, as Jablonski quips, “Skin has been studied to absolute death by dermatologists,” so many fascinating questions remain. Why are we so sweaty? Why does our skin come in so many different colors? And what accounts for our seemingly insatiable appetite for cosmetics, tattoos, and piercings? For answers, read the full interview and watch the bonus videos that put our trips to the tattoo parlor and beauty salon in perspective.













A great blog with some fantastic information. This is a real inspiration and has helped me loads.
I myself have just got into writing blogs and would appreciate any advice in terms of content and blog layout etc.
Any feedback would be good so don't pull back on the punches as feedback is the breakfast of champs so they say.
Cheers
James
