Description

Weight stigma is a pervasive part of modern culture, often remaining unnoticed despite the significant harm it causes. This volume from the Routledge Studies in the Sociology of Health and Illness examines how anti-fat bias and discrimination exist within health care systems. These biases can compromise patient care and influence how new practitioners are trained. This interdisciplinary book provides a framework to challenge the dominant discourse that health in fat individuals must be improved through weight loss. By exploring the negative impacts of bias and discrimination, the text offers critical perspectives for both pedagogy and professional practice. It is an essential resource for those looking to understand how to change these systemic issues and improve health education standards.
