Review Body Confidence / Michael Joseph Ltd:

Have you been fighting the body war for years? Tried every tactic you know to win the battle and have still failed? If you spend all your energy hating your body - wishing your stomach was flatter, your nose wasn't so small or your skin was clearer - then you may lack body confidence. Life's too short to be spent dislking the person you are. Can you really afford to wait until you're "perfect" before you start truly living? "Body Confidence" aims to help you move past your own boundaries, guiding you into a new way of thinking and being. It provides you with a blueprint to follow: a practical programme that takes you through a step-by-step process towards a body you love and feel totally confident in.

Review On Fashion / Rutgers University Press:

Until recently, fashion was considered the "F-word" in intellectual circles, dismissed as unworthy of serious attention. Yet no area of life, no individual moment, stands outside fashion's discourses. Intuitively, we all know that clothing is a language, incessesantly communicating messages about its wearer. But who speaks this language, to whom it is addressed, what does it mean, and how are its meanings established and tranformed? On Fashion explores the ways our material, political, psychological, sexual, even intellectual lives are woven into fashion's fabric. This stimulating collection of essays explores fashion's symbolic and figurative functions in photography, cinema, and video; in consumerism, postmodernism, and feminism; in political and material culture; and in self-definition and subjectivity. They demonstrate the pervasive reach of fashion and its expressions. The collection contains over sixty photographs and illustrations and includes essays by Barbara Brodman, Mary Ann Caws, Helene Cixous, Linda Benn DeLibero, Diana Fuss, Cheryl Herr, Karla Jay, Deborah Jenson, Douglas Kellner, Ingeborg Majer O'Sickey, Leslie W. Rabine, Andrew Ross, Sonia Rykiel, Carol Shloss, Kaja Silverman, Maureen Turim, and Iris Marion Young.
