    Book SynopsisPostfeminism and Body Image is a groundbreaking work that provides a poststructuralist and psychosocial analysis of key issues at the intersections of body image, psychology and media. The book outlines the theoretical framework through the work of renowned philosophers, Michel Foucault and Gilles Deleuze, and their use in feminist scholarship, to address body-image issues and challenges in the context of a postfeminist sensibility. The authors rethink body image, calling into question assumptions and obligations that affect recent issues related to social-media use, body positivity, the transformation imperative, body shaming and muscular masculinity. The analysis shows the advantage of seeing body image as a form of non-linear warfare, structured by contradiction, confusion and critique, where attempts to challenge oppressive body image practices are appropriated under the guise of positive alternatives to maintain that oppression. Through real-world examples, thesTrade Review"A 'must have' exposition of the discourses and flows of affect organising embodied experience. Sarah Riley, Adrienne Evans and Martine Robson's pathsetting new book is rich in nuanced theory and in examples which are then carefully deconstructed to reveal the canonical, contradictory and often unliveable figurations of the body characteristic of postfeminist times. Essential reading for all feminist scholars and inspirational for researchers investigating body and body image." - Margaret Wetherell Emertia, Professor, Open University, UK and The University of Auckland, New Zealand"Finally, we have a body image and media studies text that engages broadly and deeply with the shape-shifting cultural and psychological currents that mark this tumultuous moment in the Anglo-western world. Post-feminism and Body Image weaves new theories and methods by tracing, untangling and making sense of the ever knotty, contradictory bundle of forces that help to make us, collectively and individually: between feminist and post-feminist discourses and sensibilities that offer up radically different visions of "the good life"; between media studies perspectives that seek to analyse these larger cultural patterns and their neoliberal rootings, and psychological ones that probe the meanings and workings of our resulting selves; and between the massive cultural, economic and political shifts that we’ve witnessed over the past thirty years and our sexualities, gendered beings and doings, and health making practices—indeed, our most intimate relations with our bodily selves. In advancing theoretically rich and lucid readings of feminized and masculinized everyday body practices, Riley and Evans have crafted a paradigm-shifting tome." - Carla Rice, Canada Research Chair, Feminist Studies and Social Practice, and Professor, University of Guelph, Canada "Nuanced, theoretically sophisticated, accessible, and engaging, Postfeminism and Body Image provides a very timely exploration of contemporary body image issues. The authors take a critical transdisciplinary approach, drawing on cultural studies, sociology, economics, politics, geography; gender studies, psychology and media studies to interrogate the ways in which bodies and body image are understood, experienced, and regulated in the context of post-feminism. This book significantly advances our understandings of both postfeminism and body image and is a must-have for new and experienced researchers alike." - Helen Malson, Associate Professor, Social Psychology, University West of England, UK"This is a marvellous and important contribution to key debates in feminist cultural and media studies. It extends the research arc of 'postfeminism' so that there is a wider and more international focus, while at the same time providing more detailed analysis of specific iterations in consumer culture. This work also offers further theoretical refinement in the field, as well as illuminating our understanding of the stubborn persistence of 'body image' across gender and popular culture." - Angela McRobbie, FBA, Visiting Professor, Centre for Post-Digital Cultures, Institute for Creative Cultures, Coventry University, UK'A "must have" exposition of the discourses and flows of affect organising embodied experience.

    Book SynopsisThis edited volume provides readers with a deeper knowledge of the growth of personality assessment in North America over the past 40 years through the autobiographies of its most notable figures.Experts provide insights into their professional backgrounds, training experiences, their contributions and approaches to personality assessment, their perceptions of current trends, and their predictions about the future of the field. Each chapter explores topics of deep significance to the writer, fluidly intertwining theory and personal narrative.Beginning clinicians, scholars, and students will gain a better understanding of the major empirical advances that were made during the last generation regarding key questions about the nature of people, the structure of personality traits, and the connections between personality and mental health.Trade Review"Hopwood has assembled a fascinating array of stories from personality assessment luminaries about their personal and professional shaping influences, their life- and career trajectories. In essence, these are gifts of generativity. This treasure chest of narratives will inspire future generations of personality assessors to find their visions and carve out their unique paths." -Radhika Krishnamurthy, PsyD, ABAP; Clinical Psychology Professor, Florida Institute of Technology; Former President, Society for Personality Assessment "People who understand people know that scientists are not inert ingredients in their research. Chris Hopwood has curated a master list of the most accomplished and influential living personality assessment scientists and practitioners to share their professional journeys, which have left an indelible mark on the field. The result is a brightly illuminating volume that will be a must read for those who want to understand how we come to understand people."-Aidan Wright, PhD; Associate Professor of Psychology at the University of PittsburghTable of Contents1.
