This is a book about why the obese body is harshly condemned and considered pathological, why it is the subject of such intense discussion revolving around how to reduce such a body in size to socially and medically acceptable proportions. It focuses on the lived experience of obese corporeality: what it is like to be obese in a fat-phobic society. It also covers fat activism, the politics of obesity, and the controversies and controversies surrounding them. Internationally renowned sociologist Deborah Lapton explores fat as artifact: as bodily substance and bodily form that are conceptualized through the lens of complex and ever-changing systems of ideas, practices, emotions, material objects, and interpersonal relationships. This analysis reveals the broader contexts and currents within which practices related to the human body and self are performed. Written in lively, engaging language, the book is intended for a general audience as well as for students and researchers interested in the politics of corporeality and health.
