                                  early development and pioneers; important changes over time in style, tools, and techniques; influential artists; and more. The series
                                  serves as an excellent starting point for student researchers and anyone hoping to develop an appreciation for art in its many forms.

                                  Tattooing and body piercing have existed in some form or other for thousands of years. In cultures around the world the body has been
                                  used as a canvas for personal adornment, art, identification, religious marking, spiritual protection, and more. But tattoos and body
                                  piercings are hardly a thing of the past. In fact, both have experienced a resurgence in recent years, particularly among teens and
                                  young adults. The Library of Tattoos and Body Piercings explores this fascinating topic from various perspectives, including history,
                                  art, health, and teen views and concerns.
