SKIN DEEP Phillipa McGuinness A fascinating exploration of human skin — that wonderful thing that covers the body. McGuinness weaves in both science and wideranging cultural criticism to explore beauty, aging, imperfection, health, illness, and racism. What happens when something goes wrong; how the world responds to imperfection and difference, how skin makes us who we are. • McGuinness has interviewed plastic surgeons, dermatologists, burns survivors, beauticians, melanoma sufferers, victims and perpetrators of racism, and all kinds of people who are and are not comfortable in their own skin. • An all-consuming, big-ideas book in the vein of Sapiens. • Science meets art and culture, history, politics and philosophy.
