The Routledge International Handbook of Fat Studies cover

The Routledge International Handbook of Fat Studies brings together a diverse body of work from around the globe and across a wide range of Fat Studies topics and perspectives. The first major collection of its kind, it explores the epistemology, ontology, and methodology of fatness, with attention to issues such as gender and sexuality, disability and embodiment, health, race, media, discrimination, and pedagogy. Presenting work from both scholarly writers and activists, this volume reflects a range of critical perspectives vital to the expansion of Fat Studies and thus constitutes an essential resource for researchers in the field.

"...the scholars of The Routledge International Handbook of Fat Studies take their readers by the hand and show them where they can find a place of their own within a necessary and essential field of study and activism. In adding this text to the fat canon, I believe, along with Pausé and Taylor, that the 'future of Fat Studies is very fat' (13)." - Ashlen Cheyenne Duhon, Fat Studies
