Few books in this field focus solely on beauty ideals, and this
volume is unique in terms of its scholarly, interdisciplinary
approach. The eleven chapters offer readers a comprehensive
analysis of beauty and patriarchy. They reflect a variety of
approaches to the study of feminine beauty, including
philosophical, historical, sociological, cross-cultural, and
empirical. Feminine beauty is discussed as a means of patriarchal,
social control, which shapes the socio-cultural, political context
as well as the everyday lives of women.
