The co-authors combine their knowledge of psychoanalysis and anthropology with scientific research and clinical experience to create this an interdisciplinary work, using psychoanalytic theories about our \u2018hyper-modern\u2019 times to trace the impact that mass media has on individuals, families and societies.<\/p>\n<p>The volume explores various \u2018food tribes\u2019 and exposes the contradictions of today\u2019s mass media which advertise fitness and dieting alongside increasingly tastier and more accessible foods. The work aims to help us understand our highly social relationship with our bodies and what we eat.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.cambridge.org\/it\/academic\/subjects\/psychology\/applied-psychology\/body-image-and-eating-disorders-anthropological-and-psychological-overview?format=PB\">www<\/a>.<a href=\"https:\/\/www.cambridge.org\/it\/academic\/subjects\/psychology\/applied-psychology\/body-image-and-eating-disorders-anthropological-and-psychological-overview?format=PB\">cambridge.org\/it\/academic\/subjects\/psychology\/applied-psychology\/body-image-and-eating-disorders-anthropological-and-psychological-overview?format=PB<\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-12123 alignleft\" src=\"http:\/\/iarpp.net\/thesite\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Irtelli-colleague-pic-1022W.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"200\" height=\"206\" \/>Fabio Gabrielli,<\/strong> <strong>Ph.D.<\/strong> is a clinical practitioner as well as Professor of Philosophical Anthropology and Biochemistry at Ludes University of Lugano, Switzerland, where he has previously served as Dean.
