Publisher's summary
NOTE FROM AUTHOR: This book was written decades ago and based on outdated technology.
Body Art Learner's Guide is a technical manual through the optics of 21st-century tattoo and piercing apprentice. The author distinguishes himself from the ordinary craftsman. The very few tattoos and piercings that are around, are far from perfect, not surprising since he devoted himself more to studying than to draughtsmanship. Thus, he concentrated on writing this rather than on applied work.
Body Art Learner's Guide presents the basics, encouraging you to practice and advance to more sophisticated techniques in person. This includes subdermal implants, scarification, branding, and scalpel work. This book can not teach you how to tattoo or pierce. No book can; it requires hands-on live training.
Body Art Learner's Guide presents the essential elements for anyone who wants to become a body art practitioner. It is not aimed at people who simply want to get body art—though of course the two interests may overlap. I use the phrase “body art” throughout this book to refer to all of the topics covered, as they all involve aesthetic modifications.
This is a synthesis of information gathered over a five-year span of experience in multiple tattoo parlors, piercing studios, and conventions.

Story
Fresh off the success of her groundbreaking first play, A Raisin in the Sun, Lorraine Hansberry's The Sign in Sidney Brustein's Window tells the tragicomic story of a young bohemian couple in New York's Greenwich Village, struggling to do what's right in a world that rewards everything that's wrong. Sidney is a dreamer who wants his own Walden Pond; Iris is a budding actress whose own backstory is a performance. They're caught in a moment where, "the world is about to crack right down the middle," as the play tackles racism, sexism, antisemitism, homophobia, liberal complacency, and more.

Story
No one other than Warren Zanes, rocker and writer and friend, could author a book about Tom Petty that is as honest and evocative of Petty's music and the remarkable rock and roll history he and his band helped to write. Born in Gainesville, Florida, with more than a little hillbilly in his blood, Tom Petty was a Southern shit kicker, a kid without a whole lot of promise. Rock and roll made it otherwise.

Story
The very strange but nevertheless true story of the dark underbelly of a 1960s hippie utopia. Laurel Canyon in the 1960s and early 1970s was a magical place where a dizzying array of musical artists congregated to create much of the music that provided the soundtrack to those turbulent times. But there was a dark side to that scene as well. Many didn't make it out alive, and many of those deaths remain shrouded in mystery to this day.

In this brave and moving memoir, Corey Feldman is revealing the truth about what his life was like behind the scenes: His is a past that included physical, drug, and sexual abuse, a dysfunctional family from which he was emancipated at age fifteen, three high-profile arrests for drug possession, a nine-month stint in rehab, and a long, slow crawl back to the top of the box office.
