Erstausgabe
Hardcover. Zustand: Fine. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: fine. First edition. First edition, first printing. Fine, fresh, like-new copy in equally fine, bright dust jacket. Hardcover. 287 pp with notes, index, and black and white photographs. In 'Plucked', historian Rebecca M. Herzig reveals the history and striking change in dominant American beliefs about electric hair removal: once considered a "mutilation" practiced primarily by "savage" men, by the turn of the twentieth century maintaining hair-free faces and limbs had become a social imperative for women. Herzig's extraordinary book addresses both the collateral damage of this intensifying pursuit of hair-free skin and the fascinating history of race, science, industry, and medicine that casts a new light to this seemingly mundane practice. Remarkably uncommon in any hardcover edition and even more so in first edition.

Summary:"Subramaniam examines how science and religion have come together to propel a vision of the modern Indian nation, and in particular, a Hindu nationalist vision of India. Five illustrative cases of bionationalism animate this book: Hindu nationalist narratives of scientific development, colonial law and sexual politics in India, surrogacy and women's roles, the politics of caste and race in the language of genes and genomics, and the alignment of environmental scientists and religious activists. Subramaniam demonstrates that the politics of gender, race, class, caste, sexuality, and indigeneity are deeply implicated in the projects and narratives of the nation. At the same time, she seeks spaces of possibility and new narratives for planetary salvation that defy binary logics, incorporating science and religion, human and nonhuman, and nature and culture"-- Provided by publisher.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Uncovers the history of hair removal practices and sheds light on the prolific culture of beauty From the clamshell razors and homemade lye depilatories used in colonial America to the diode lasers and prescription pharmaceuticals available today, Americans have used a staggering array of tools to remove hair deemed unsightly, unnatural, or excessive. This is true especially for women and girls; conservative estimates indicate that 99% of American women have tried hair removal, and at least 85% regularly remove hair from their faces, armpits, legs, and bikini lines. How and when does hair become a problem-what makes some growth 'excessive' Who or what separates the necessary from the superfluous In Plucked, historian Rebecca Herzig addresses these questions about hair removal. She shows how, over time, dominant American beliefs about visible hair changed: where once elective hair removal was considered a 'mutilation' practiced primarily by 'savage' men, by the turn of the twentieth century, hair-free faces and limbs were expected for women. Visible hair growth-particularly on young, white women-came to be perceived as a sign of political extremism, sexual deviance, or mental illness. By the turn of the twenty-first century, more and more Americans were waxing, threading, shaving, or lasering themselves smooth. Herzig's extraordinary account also reveals some of the collateral damages of the intensifying pursuit of hair-free skin. Moving beyond the experiences of particular patients or clients, Herzig describes the surprising histories of race, science, industry, and medicine behind today's hair-removing tools. Plucked is an unsettling, gripping, and original tale of the lengths to which Americans will go to remove hair.
