The Beauty Myth (2010)

First, Naomi Wolf revolutionized our understanding of the relationship between "beauty"and female identity. Now, for the first time on DVD for your classroom, Naomi Wolf presents her definitive treatise on THE BEAUTY MYTH: The Culture of Beauty, Psychology, & the Self. On a sweeping historical canvas, from the Industrial Revolution to today's multi-billion-dollar diet and cosmetic industries, Wolf exposes the Beauty Myth as a distinct cultural narrative-a fiction that "beauty" exists objectively and universally.
