A surprising assessment of the failures and successes of modern Japan.

In Dogs and Demons, Alex Kerr chronicles the many facets of Japan's recent, and chronic, crises -- from the failure of its banks and pension funds to the decline of its once magnificent modern cinema. He is the first to give a full report on the nation's endangered environment -- its seashores lined with concrete, its roads leading to nowhere in the mountains -- as well as its "monument frenzy," the destruction of old cities such as Kyoto and construction of drab new ones, and the attendant collapse of its tourist industry. Kerr writes with humor and passion, for "passion," he says, "is part of the story. Millions of Japanese feel as heartbroken at what is going on as I do. My Japanese friends tell me, 'Please write this -- for us.'"

This sunscreen combines beef tallow and zinc oxide to offer reliable protection against the sun. The texture is lightweight and absorbs well, leaving the skin feeling comfortable without a heavy sensation. It works for both the face and body and holds up well against water exposure. It is a practical choice for those seeking a sunscreen with a more natural formula.

Excellent product!!!
Size: 3 Ounce (Pack of 1)
I’ve been getting into more natural skincare lately, especially beef tallow products, so I wanted to try a sunscreen like this. I like that it uses tallow along with zinc oxide for protection. The texture is smooth and not overly greasy, and it blends in better than I expected for a mineral sunscreen. It leaves my skin feeling moisturized. I’ve used it on both my face and body, and it feels comfortable throughout the day. It’s also been good with my daughter’s skin, even though she has skin problems, which has been a big plus for us.
