Week - 'An exciting introduction to a little-known microscopic
universe and to a talented new writer.' Sunday Times
_______________ How does our diet affect our skin? What makes the
skin age? And why can't we tickle ourselves? Providing a cover for
our delicate and intricate bodies, the skin is our largest and
fastest growing organ. We see it, touch it and live in it every
day. It's a habitat for a mesmerizingly complex world of
micro-organisms and physical functions that are vital to our health
and our survival. It's also one of the first things people see
about us and is crucial to our sense of identity. And yet how much
do we really know about it? Through the lenses of science,
sociology and history, Dr Monty Lyman leads us on a journey across
our most underrated and unexplored organ and reveals how the skin
is far stranger and more complex than you've ever imagined.
