This tell-all locker room confidential reveals just how driven American women have become in their quest for perfection when, in truth, they need look only to themselves for the “perfect” body. Often dressed in no more than a towel, author Leslie Goldman spent five years talking with women of all shapes and sizes about their bodies. Using her own stories as a springboard, she asked them what goes into shaping not just their bodies, but their body image. What are their exercise routines? Which body part do they like the most? The least? Is the locker room a place for female camaraderie or an arena for harsh self-judging? The strength of this book is that it faces serious issues with a sense of humor-it has the ability to both educate and entertain.
