This edited collection explores the malleability and influence of
body image, focusing particularly on how media representation and
popular culture's focus on the body exacerbates the crucial social
influence these representations can have on audiences' perceptions
of themselves and others. Contributors investigate the cultural
context and lived experiences of individuals' relationships with
their bodies, going beyond examination of the thin, ideal body type
to explore the emerging representations and portrayals of a diverse
set of body types across the media spectrum, paving the way for
future research on this topic. Scholars of media studies, popular
culture, and health communication will find this book particularly
useful.
