Science Ink: Tattoos of the Science Obsessed by Carl Zimmer

3.0

It's a really nice and fairly original concept - the layout looks good and the scientific anecdotes are well written; but the tattoos! God, these tattoos... about 50% of the tats could've easily been removed from this book since they look really dodgy and painfully homemade. Just because you get a lot of submissions doesn't mean you have to publish them all, Carl! It should be mandatory that a book about tattoos should have a majority of good and professionally done pieces.
