Table of ContentsReviews'This is one of the most original, engaged and compelling discussions of the contemporary landscape of disability I have read. Rodan, Ellis and Lebeck deftly fold diverse media and cultural contexts together in order to offer an astute, discerning picture of the way popular culture creates particular bodies as other . A brilliant and truly global piece of scholarship, this book is a must for those interested in disability, obesity, ageing, and the mediatization of politics of becoming other .' Anna Hickey-Moody, University of Sydney, Australia 'This thoughtful, accessible book engages with television's constructions of what it is to live with disability, obesity and/or an ageing body, and argues that the meanings of these categories are subject to constant negotiation. Resistance is not futile!' Lelia Green, Edith Cowan University, Australia Author InformationDebbie Rodan is Senior Lecturer of Media and Cultural Studies at Edith Cowan University, Australia.
