Beschreibung
The Beauty Bias explores our cultural preoccupation with attractiveness, the costs it imposes, and the responses it demands. Deborah Rhode describes the social, biological, market, and media forces that have contributed to appearance-related problems and she provides the first systematic survey of how appearance laws work in practice, as well as a compelling argument for extending their reach. The book also offers case histories of invidious discriminationand presents a plausible legal and political strategy for addressing them.
