Developing an understanding of eating disorders beyond the
biological/medical framework has become a necessity in present
times, especially when eating disorders are swiftly spreading deep
roots across the world. In view of the multidimensional etiology of
eating disorders, there are increased efforts towards understanding
its phenomenological, cultural, and other related non-medical
aspects, and Gender, Eating Disorders, and Graphic Medicine leaps
past the prevalent notions on eating disorder, and contributes to
the developing corpus of affective knowledge on eating disorders
among women through comics and graphic medicine. Taking cues from
select graphic narratives on eating disorders, this book attempts
to posit graphic medicine as one of the most befitting modes of
life writing. This book is distinctive in that it is an attempt not
only to explore the multi-dimensional etiology of eating disorders
in women using graphic medicine narratives but also to understand
how graphic medicine humanizes eating disorders by offering a
unique ingress into women's phenomenological experience of eating
disorders.
