Susie Orbach's seminal work, now established as a worldwide classic, shows how fat is not about food, but rather about politics, defiance, protection, sex, strength, assertion, anger, love.
This edition includes a new introduction that explores how the landscape of bodies and food has shifted in our online age, bringing this iconic book to a new generation of readers.
