Consuming the Body examines contemporary consumerism and the commodified construction of ideal gendered bodies, paying particular attention to the new forms of interaction produced by social networking sites. Describing the behaviours of an ideal neoliberal subject, Woolley identifies modes of discipline, forms of pleasure, and opportunities for subversion in an exploration of how individuals are addressed and the ways in which they are expected to respond. In doing so, this book explores the imperfect relationship between our own bodies and the idealized images displayed in comtemporary advertising and social media.--Back cover
