I enjoyed reading this book and I would recommend it to all my friends. I would like to see a sequel to see what happens to George and Melinda's family. It also makes you think about what is going on in the world today.

I found Skin Deep to be technically informative on the potential uses for RFID technology.... very scary. It was very easy reading; I most enjoyed the geographical accurateness of places in New York City, down to the detail of what was ordered in a particular restaurant to the emotions felt when viewing ground zero. When a book can take me to a place and then tap into my emotional and moral fibers, I consider the writing very successful because frankly, most books are just the same thing over and over. I thank the author for giving me a greater awareness of technology already being globally used and warning us of its darker potential.... Now Vivo... this character was very nicely developed, but then he really didn't play a significant role... I can only hope this means another book later... he's got way too many credentials (even scarier) to just fade away into the sunset. The references to scripture were profound and combined with this story line, made me really stop and think...what if? I highly recommend this book.

Def a fast read. I enjoyed the characters which came across as realistic. A lot of the information in this book is accurate and factual and gives a clear picture as to what's going on in our world. I will recommend to friends for a better understanding of what's going on in the world with regards to identity theft and RealID.
If you liked DaVinci....you'll love Skin Deep.

More realistic than DaVinci Code and not as drawn out. It will grab your attention in the first chapter and the contents will have you questioning how much attention you have been paying to the current happenings of the world around you. This book forces you to take a look inside yourself and will change your view on technology.

This is the book to read. It deals with a very timely topic--identify theft. Very interesting throughout and a fast read. A great book to have and it kept my attention the entire time. Also, a great book for disscussion and debate among friends. I highly recommend it!
