A new approach to the subject of tattoos from real people! A great read!

What a great, fresh, new look at a popular subject. The author did a great job capturing the real stories why people get tattooed.

The author, Geoffrey L. Domowicz, chose to take a different route in this book than most I've read.
There isn't much history, or technical writing on tattoo(ing), just inverviews with many people who've chosen to be inked. Mr. Domowicz lets the people speak in their own words, while adding some insights of his own that don't overpower the interviewees.
Many people can't understand the "why" behind the decision to permanently ink a piece of art on skin. This book, through thewords of those who've chosen to be permanently marked, may be able to explain the reasons.
The reasons are many (maybe infinite), and all very interesting. Anyone contemplating a tattoo (or thinking of getting another tattoo) will find this an interesting, thought-provoking read.
