Hardback. Zustand: Good. An award-winning Northwestern University psychology professor reveals how the cultural obsession with women's appearance is an epidemic that harms women's ability to get ahead and to live happy, meaningful lives, in this powerful, eye-opening work in the vein of Naomi Wolf, Peggy Orenstein, and Sheryl Sandberg. Today's young women face a bewildering set of contradictions when it comes to beauty. They don't want to be Barbie dolls but, like generations of women before them, are told they must look like them. They're angry about the media's treatment of women but hungrily consume the very outlets that belittle them. They mock modern culture's absurd beauty ideal and make videos exposing Photoshopping tricks, but feel pressured to emulate the same images they criticize by posing with a "skinny arm." They understand that what they see isn't real but still download apps to airbrush their selfies. Yet these same young women are fierce fighters for the issues they care about. They are ready to fight back against their beauty-sick culture and create a different world for themselves, but they need a way forward. In Beauty Sick, Dr. Renee Engeln, whose TEDx talk on beauty sickness has received more than 250,000 views, reveals the shocking consequences of our obsession with girls' appearance on their emotional and physical health and their wallets and ambitions, including depression, eating disorders, disruptions in cognitive processing, and lost money and time. Combining scientific studies with the voices of real women of all ages, she makes clear that to truly fulfill their potential, we must break free from cultural forces that feed destructive desires, attitudes, and words-from fat-shaming to denigrating commentary about other women. She provides inspiration and workable solutions to help girls and women overcome negative attitudes and embrace their whole selves, to transform their lives, claim the futures they deserve, and, ultimately, change their world. …

Paperback. Zustand: Good. La ciencia sugiere que la belleza siempre ha sido importante. Las mujeres de hoy fueron educadas con la creencia de que podían ser lo que quisieran. Sin embargo, aún sienten la necesidad de ser hermosas. Esta desesperación por ser bellas no solo es una amenaza para la salud. Es un obstáculo en el camino que lleva a la igualdad entre los géneros. Las mujeres de hoy se enfrentan a un desconcertante conjunto de contradicciones cuando se trata de la belleza. No quieren ser como la muñeca Barbie, pero aun así, sienten que deben tener el aspecto de Barbie. Se sienten molestas por la forma en que se consideran a las mujeres en los medios de comunicación, pero creen sin problema en esos mismos medios que las subestiman. Se burlan del absurdo ideal de belleza que hay en nuestra cultura. Hacen videos donde revelan los trucos hechos con Photoshop. Sin embargo, no hacen sino imitar las mismas imágenes que critican. Saben que aquello que ven no es real y, sin embargo, lo siguen añorando. Son sensatas, pero el hecho de ser sensatas no es suficiente, puesto que siguen bajando aplicaciones a sus teléfonos para retocar sus "selfies". Pero esas mismas jóvenes están dispuestas a opinar sobre problemas que les preocupan. Están deseosas de iniciar una discusión. Están listas para dejar sus espejos y crear un mundo diferente para las jóvenes y para las mujeres. Este es el libro que las ayudará a lograrlo. En él analizarán las evidencias en cuanto a la infinidad de consecuencias que tiene el monitoreo de su aspecto externo, entre ellas la depresión, los desórdenes alimenticios, las interrupciones en el proceso cognitivo y la pérdida de tiempo y dinero; y encontrarán soluciones, porque una vez tengamos una mejor comprensión sobre la forma en que nos afectan las palabras, en especial las charlas acerca del peso, y los comentarios sobre la apariencia, verán que el cambio se encuentra a su alcance.…
