A review by campbelle177
Unshrinking by Kate Manne

challenging informative medium-paced
I’ve liked Kate Manne’s previous work, so I was excited to read her philosophical perspective on fatphobia and it didn’t disappoint. The book is well written, well researched, and more accessible than most philosophy texts and even the author’s previous books. While some of the topics are familiar if you’ve read writers like Sabrina Strings or Aubrey Gordon, others feel unique to Manne, such as fatphobia in academia and the politics of morality that we assign to fatness.
