The Nose Knows!

AirTalk for December 3, 2002

Journalist Gabrielle Glaser has always had an unusually keen sense of smell. When she had a sinus operation and lost her sense of smell for two years, she really began to understand the importance of smell. Noses are funny things: we blow them, we change them, and we make fun of them. Glaser joins host Larry Mantle to discuss her new book, The Nose: A Profile of Sex, Beauty and Survival (Atria Books, 2002).
