About the Author

Dr. Ron McCluskey has been treating people for sun related problems for over twenty years.

One of the early cases that he cared for made him acutely aware of the dangers of ignoring this aspect of health. A young lady had just moved to southern California from the north of the USA. She decided she wanted a killer tan. So she put on her bikini, went out to the pool and lay on an air mattress in the water. She then fell asleep. Later she felt like she had gotten enough sun on her front and turned over and went back to sleep.

When Dr. Ron saw her she had blisters from head to toe, front and back. It was amazing what a couple of hours in the sun could do. Talk about a sunburn! There have only been a few people that he's cared for more miserable than she.
