Over the past twenty-five years, our quest for thinness has morphed into a relentless obsession with weight and body image. In our culture, fat has become a four-letter word. How did we get to this place where the worst insult you can hurl at someone is ''fat,'' where women and girls (and increasingly men and boys) will diet, purge, overeat, undereat, and berate themselves and others, all in the name of being thin? Through interviews, research, and her own experience, Brown not only gives us the real story on weight, health, and beauty but also offers suggestions for how each of us can sort through the lies and misconceptions and make peace with and for ourselves.
