''Unbearable Weight' is brilliant. From an immensely knowledgeable feminist perspective, in engaging, jargonless prose, Bordo analyzes a whole range of issues connected to the body — weight and weight loss, exercise, media images, movies, advertising, anorexia and bulimia, and much more — in a way that makes sense of our current social landscape — finally! This is a great book for anyone who wonders why women's magazines are always describing delicious food as 'sinful' and why there is a cake called Death by Chocolate. Loved it' — Katha Pollitt, 'Nation' columnist and author of 'Subject to Debate: Sense and Dissents on Women, Politics, and Culture' (2001).
