Description

The Remarkable Life of the Skin: An Intimate Journey Across Our Surface by Monty Lyman. Our skin is a remarkable and complex organ that plays a central role in our lives, yet it remains one of the least understood parts of our bodies. This fascinating book explores the intricate world of micro-organisms and physical functions that are vital to our health and survival. Through a unique blend of science, sociology, and history, Dr Monty Lyman takes us on a journey across our skin, examining its microbiome, our love of tattoos, and the effectiveness of beauty products. By revealing how the skin is far stranger and more complex than we ever imagined, this book opens up new perspectives on our most underrated organ.
