If you are looking for a book that will help you with piercing, this is not it. The body art was nice, but lacked alot variety. Good book for coffee table art! Not a informational book if you want to know how its done or what it takes.

dont get me wrong..the photography in the book is great but the only piercings featured are navels and eyebrows and nipples and pretty much any other super commen boring piercings..if you are interested in basic, run of the mill piercings then this book is great. however, if you are looking for something a bit more extreme, do not waste your time on this book.

Unoriginal, uninteresting, uninformative (even at the level of the esthetics, ie. only the most common piercings are featured, and I can't find the jewelry that beautiful either, at all), predictable, shallow. I looked through the book when I received it and, sorely disappointed, returned the book within the hour.

I couldn't agree less with the other reviews. Tons of navel piercings (which already says a lot). Right away, most pictures (not all) look like the models are professional models, which bothered me a great deal. In fact the images could make their way to glossy fashion magazines. My advice would be to get some such magazines and not this book. And if you would get this book for the "piercing" then there is much better to get as well, as most piercings featured are middle of the road, fashionable ones, not too creative at all (like in "bad art").
The techniqual quality of the photos is irreprocheable, but to sum it up there is little or no content.
Sorry to hear that piercing professionals use this book (hard to believe actually, unless your clientele needs to be convinced that piercings can be fashionable - and don't you have a portfolio to show?)

This book is beautifull. I love the metal ring "Pierced" through the cover. The pictures are great although i expected some of the less mainstream piercings. Overall a great buy though.
