Reducing Bodies

Reducing Bodies: Mass Culture and the Female Figure in Postwar America explores the ways in which women in the years following World War II refashioned their bodiesâthrough reducing diets exercise and plastic surgeryâand asks what insights these changing beauty standards can offer into gender dynamics in postwar America. Drawing on novel and untapped sources including insurance industry records this engaging study considers questions of gender health and race and provides historical context for the emergence of fat studies and contemporary conversations of the obesity epidemic. .
