What Nudism Exposes situates the nudist movement within the social
and cultural context of postwar Canada by considering how nudist
practices and attitudes both departed from and reinforced
mainstream values in changing times. In this perceptive, eminently
readable book, Mary-Ann Shantz describes how nudists sought social
approval as they participated in contemporary debates about
childrearing, sexuality, and public nudity. Shantz explains the
perspectives of the nudist movement while questioning its
assumptions, particularly the defence of nudity as natural. What
nudism ultimately exposes is how the body figures at the
intersection of nature and culture, the individual and the social,
the private and the public.
