 Good book if you need ideas June 12, 2008
This book is great! Having just flipped through it, you can see right away that the pictures inside are big and easy to see the detail. It also gives a little background to the different images used in a Japanese Tattoo. For example, it tells you what the dragon symbolises and where it originated from in the tattoo format.
I would recommend this book for any tattoo enthusiast.
 Great book for some old school imagery... August 24, 2007
I like this book. Great art by some great artists. The text is simple and minimal, and the photo's are great quality large images. It is however very very old school. If you enjoy the flat simple technique of early japanese tattoo art this book is a must have. It's not that the tattoo's are of a lesser quality, it is just that they are very traditional. If you are seriously considering a great traditional japanese tattoo, or are interested in simply learning more about it, this book will be useful for you to see a good overal collection of the most common elements with short simple explanations.

The photographs in this short book are quite good, it's just that the quality of tattoos in this book are very average, by Japanese standards. The text is extremely light and you learn practically nothing you didn't already know. There are several much, much better books on Japanese tattoos. Try Bushido & Japanese Tattooing Now. Both are infinitely superior to this. And much better value for money.
Good book if at a sensible price February 18, 2006

This book has good visual representation of Japanese tattoos, but the text is a little 'oversimplified' in its approach. Like I said though, great photos, and well worth the $17.00 a new copy will set you back on amazon.com. £131 as listed here is just crazy for a book still in print outside of the UK.
an excellent source of inspiration October 18, 2002

Wow what a great book I have recently had a japanese tattoo as a back piece. Having looked through loads of tattoo magazines I bought this book from amazon and it sparked my creative side.Not only does the book contain lots of photographs of japanese tattoos it also gives the history behind the japanese tattoo style.
This book is a serious must have for anyone who is considering a japenese tattoo.10 out of 10 5 stars...
