Book Introduction
Esteemed Psychotherapist and writer Susie Orbach diagnoses the crisis in our relationship to our bodies and points the way toward a process of healing.
Throughout the Western world, people have come to believe that general dissatisfaction can be relieved by some change in their bodies. Here Susie Orbach explains the origins of this condition, and examines its implications for all of us. Challenging the Freudian view that bodily disorders originate and progress in the mind, Orbach argues that we should look at self-mutilation, obesity, anorexia, and plastic surgery on their own terms, through a reading of the body itself. Incorporating the latest research from neuropsychology, as well as case studies from her own practice, she traces many of these fixations back to the relationship between mothers and babies, to anxieties that are transferred unconsciously, at a very deep level, between the two. Orbach reveals how vulnerable our bodies are, how susceptible to every kind of negative stimulus--from a nursing infant sensing a mother's discomfort to a grown man or woman feeling inadequate because of a model on a billboard. That vulnerability makes the stakes right now tremendously high.
In the past several decades, a globalized media has overwhelmed us with images of an idealized, westernized body, and conditioned us to see any exception to that ideal as a problem. The body has become an object, a site of production and commerce in and of itself. Instead of our bodies making things, we now make our bodies. Susie Orbach reveals the true dimensions of the crisis, and points the way toward healing and acceptance.

수지 오바크(지은이)
1946년 영국 런던에서 태어났다. 10대에 임신을 해서 퇴학당한 뒤, 미국으로 건너가 공부했다. 30세에 런던 여성치료쎈터를 열었고, 이후 정신분석 심리치료를 하면서 페미니스트로 활동해왔다. 『가디언』의 칼럼니스트이자, 10년 동안 런던경제대학에서 방문교수로 강의했다. 오바크는 고(故) 다이애너 왕세자비의 폭식증을 치료한다는 사실이 알려지면서 일약 유명인사가 되었는데, 영국에서는 ‘프로이트 이래 가장 유명한 정신분석가’로 평가받는다. 도브(Dove)가 주관한 ‘리얼 뷰티’ 캠페인의 공동 발의자이자 자문 역할을 맡기도 했다. 저서로 『비만은 페미니즘의 주제다』(Fat is a Feminist Issue) 『단식투쟁』(Hunger Strike) 『섹스라는 불가능성』(The Impossibility of Sex) 『먹는 것에 관하여』(On Eating) 등이 있다.
