Definition

  • The Chinese philosopher Confucius once said “Everything has its beauty but not everyone sees it.” External beauty is an objective for many and an obsession for some. Hence, the number of Americans having plastic surgery procedures has steadily increased since the mid-20th century. [Source: Encyclopedia of White-Collar and Corporate Crime; Breast Implants]
