Book Description
“A richly detailed and highly compassionate ethnographic study of a core group of black men who daily frequent Valois, a cafeteria in Chicago’s Hyde Park.” —A. Javier Treviño, Humanity & Society At the Valois “See Your Food” cafeteria on Chicago’s South Side, black and white men gather over cups of coffee and steam-table food. Mitchell Duneier, a sociologist, spent four years at the Valois writing this moving profile of the black men who congregate at “Slim’s Table.” Praised as “a marvelous study of those who should not be forgotten” by The Wall Street Journal, Slim’s Table helps demolish the narrow sociological picture of black men and simple media-reinforced stereotypes. In between is a “respectable” citizenry, too often ignored and little understood. “Slim’s Table is an astonishment. Duneier manages to fling open windows of perception into what it means to be working-class black, how a caring community can proceed from the most ordinary transactions, all the while smashing media-induced stereotypes of the races and race relations.” —Citation for Chicago Sun-Times Chicago Book of the Year Award “An instant classic of ethnography that will provoke debate and provide insight for years to come.” —Michael Eric Dyson, Chicago Tribune “Mr. Duneier sees the subjects of his study as people and he sees the scale of their lives as fully human, rather than as diminished versions of grander lives lived elsewhere by people of another color . . . A welcome antidote to trends in both journalism and sociology.” —Roger Wilkins, The New York Times Book Review

Book Description
In this eye-opening book, New York Times science writer Gina Kolata shows that our society's obsession with dieting and weight loss is less about keeping trim and staying healthy than about money, power, trends, and impossible ideals. Rethinking Thin is at once an account of the place of diets in American society and a provocative critique of the weight-loss industry. Kolata's account of four determined dieters' progress through a study comparing the Atkins diet to a conventional low-calorie one becomes a broad tale of science and society, of social mores and social sanctions, and of politics and power. Rethinking Thin asks whether words like willpower are really applicable when it comes to eating and body weight. It dramatizes what it feels like to spend a lifetime struggling with one's weight and fantasizing about finally, at long last, getting thin. It tells the little-known story of the science of obesity and the history of diets and dieting—scientific and social phenomena that made some people rich and thin and left others fat and miserable. And it offers commonsense answers to questions about weight, eating habits, and obesity—giving us a better understanding of the weight that is right for our bodies.
