Science Ink:

Tattoos of the Science Obsessed

by Carl Zimmer

Written by bestselling science essayist and lecturer Carl Zimmer, tattoos meet popular science in this fascinating hardcover book showcasing hundreds of tattoos paying tribute to disciplines such as astrophysics, evolutionary biology, neuroscience, and mathematics, along with the stories of the individuals who inscribe their obsessions in their skin.

Each tattoo provides a jumping-off point for Zimmer to reflect on the science in question, whether it's the importance of an image of Darwin's finches or the significance of the uranium atom inked into the chest of a young radiologist.
