From the publisher

A Finalist for the Los Angeles Times Book Prize in History Explores the meaning of fat and anti-fat in modern Western society The modern struggle against fat cuts deeply and pervasively into American culture, as evidenced by the compulsion to stay thin, or at least to profess a desire to become thin. Dieting, weight consciousness and widespread hostility to obesity form one of the fundamental themes of modern life in countries around the world.
