Vendeur : Lady Lisa's Bookshop, Chester, Royaume-Uni
Hardcover. Etat : Used: Acceptable. Hardback with D/J in good condition. 1997 Picador edition. . Richard Klein discusses why despite ever greater efforts to be thin, western populations are generally fatter than in previous years. Explores the origins and uses of the word fat and the concepts associated with it, suggesting that people should in fact treasure fat in their diets. Eat Fat is a perverse, delightful and ingenious celebration of fat. In it Richard Klein argues against dieting and against our culture's obsession with weight; as the Western world appears to be getting fatter and dieticians are getting richer he wonders whether there is a good reason for fat as he delights in all its forms, shapes and sizes. "This is a splendid blast against fattism. Anyone carrying an ounce of the stuff will be cheered by Klein's assault" Peter McKay, Mail on Sunday; "A witty and informed look at the skinny emperors of dieting" Independent.

Boards. Etat : Fine. First Edition. 'Fat is beautiful, sexy and strong. Politicians cultivate it, singers require it, gourmets appreciate it, and lovers play with it. Fat is a fabulous three-letter word.' So ends the preface to Richard Kelin's new book, a perverse, delightful and ingenious celebration of fat. In it he argues against dieting and against our culture's current obsession with weight; as the western world appears to be getting fatter he wonders whether there is a good reason for fat as he delights in all its forms, shapes and sizes. While there is ample evidence that fat is unhealthy for some, for the vast majority of us the risks involved in combating it must be seriously evaluated. As Richard Klein writes 'Fat serves to embody our drive for satisfaction and the urge to pleasure, as well as much that is self-destructive and self demeaning in our lives'. Cheeky and playful yet devastating in its insights, Eat Fat intends nothing less than a revolution in how we think about this complex issue. In this tour de force the author traces the older, positive meanings of the word 'fat'. He analyzes 'the thing fat', discussing not only the aesthetics of fat but also the nature of fat (including the latest medical findings). He examines 'fat sex' including representatations of the human body designed to arouse people whose taste in beauty is fat. And he explores 'political fat' i.e. the relation to fat to power. Eat Fat is a highly iconociastic 'postmodern diet book' that will be gleefully devoured by its readers. Illustrated with B/W photos. N° de réf. du vendeur 010324
