This took me awhile to get through; mainly because I opted to read 1-2 each day. As someone who did not vote for this asshole (I refuse to say his name), but know many people who did (and continue to think he is doing a great job!), it's refreshing to know there so many out there who think as I do. ...
I mentioned before that I didn't remember how I stumbled across this book, although it may have been in the context of Faking It by Lux Alptraum. Not sure. Anyway, I'm glad I picked this up because although the subject matter is pretty weighty and the cases discussed can be rather depressing, the ...

I can't imagine that anyone would recommend sitting down and reading this encyclopedia (or any other) straight through. But, for various reasons, that is exactly what I did. What I loved: lots of artists whose work or bio I knew nothing about, and lots of historically significant women. What I reall...
This wasn't what I thought it would be. Kind of boring book and not something I'd read all the way through.
Full of great info - and all of it can be found online.
This book is an addictive read that will inspire you to stop dieting and look this great big "fat=bad" myth in the eye. It analyzes the media and the health industry's role in keeping this myth alive. It is a resourceful book that will bring out the fat activist in you!
