Explore a unique sociological examination of anorexia nervosa and bulimia in this academic text from Routledge. This book provides deep insights into how eating disorders develop through the lived experiences of white, middle-class, heterosexual women. Through detailed interviews, the text explores how family roles and cultural messages about thinness and beauty shape these illnesses. Readers will gain an understanding of the agency women exert when using weight control to manage life stressors.
