Examining the 20th century suntan as a social and scientific phenomenon, this illustrated book debunks the myth that changing attitudes toward the tan sprang largely from the world of fashion. Initial pro-tanning medical hype, negative opinions of sunbathing, development of sunscreens, debate over its efficacy, and the sunless tan are covered.
