THE BEAUTY MYTH : HOW IMAGES OF BEAUTY ARE USED AGAINST WOMEN - 1 - London Vintage 1991/01/01 - 348

In the fight for women's equality, one issue is still undiscussed, according to this book. The issue is women's compulsive pursuit of personal beauty and the book aims to confront this last taboo and expose it for what it really is - divisive, anti-erotic and hostile to love.
