This is a collection which brings together authors from around the
world. The book dares to examine some of the most extreme
approaches to the body that our society engages with. What makes
this book unique is that it does not dismiss what may be the more
difficult and challenging areas of the body and society, rather it
embraces them as an embodied resource for the ever-expanding task
of considering the nature of incarnation through the lens of body
theology. Topics range from cosmetic surgery and the bible to the
sacramental nature of self harm in young girls. Along the way the
book looks at the Puritan heritage of 'Extreme Makeover' programmes
and the pernicious theology inherent in 'Slim for Him' programmes.
