Making the Body Beautiful: A Cultural History of Aesthetic Surgery

Presents a world history and cultural theory of aesthetic surgery. This book discusses how people have reshaped their noses to repair the ravages of war and disease, to match prevailing ideas of beauty, and to avoid association with negative images of the "Jew," the "Irish," the "Oriental," or the "Black."
