Social Aspects of ObesityI. de Garine, Nancy J. Pollock Gordon and Breach Publishers, 1995 - 314 pagine This collection of essays examines obesity not as an objective medical or psychological problem, but as a subjective social and cultural phenomenon. The contributors take a cross-cultural perspective, examining both the negative casting of obesity in developed countries and the traditional view of obesity as a positive characteristic in subsistence societies which is threatened by the dominance of Western culture. |
