Unshrinking: How to Face Fatphobia

I did think that Dr. Manne rushed her readers through some conclusions, which is unfortunate because many readers are going to, like me, experience significant cognitive dissonance as she walks them through the science in the early chapters. That said, it's absolutely a five-star work. Fatphobia, while harmful and exclusionary and reductive, is also immoral. What's more, it's irrational: it fails every proof of logic that you put it to.

The personal anecdotes and the first half resonated better than the later half. There was too much time discussing the origin of the term gaslit. I would be more interested in reading other works now though. Doesn't feel like this book said anything new, but is rather a compendium of ideas already more rigorously communicated elsewhere.
