AUTHOR
SUMMARY
The Obsession is a deeply committed and beautifully written analysis of our society's increasing demand that women be thin. It offers a careful, thought provoking discussion of the reasons men have encouraged this obsession and women have embraced it. It is a book about women's efforts to become thin rather than to accept the natural dimensions of their bodies--a book about the meaning of food and its rejection.Chernin, Kim is the author of 'Obsession Reflections on the Tyranny of Slenderness', published 1994 under ISBN 9780060925055 and ISBN 0060925051.
