The Handbook of Diversity in Body Image addresses the urgent need for inclusive body image research and practice. This volume fills a critical gap by comprehensively examining how body image develops and is maintained and negotiated in various cultural, geographic, and social contexts. This book begins by tracing the historical trajectory of body image research and practice, highlighting the evolution from past perspectives to our current understanding. It then presents in-depth reviews of body image research in a range of geographic regions around the world. The volume also includes chapters that review the intricate intersections of identity, including discussions on body image in racialized minority groups, indigenous communities, minoritized sexual and gender identities, men, diverse religious identities, and those experiencing food insecurities. This handbook also presents chapters that consider diversities in life experiences, including body image across the lifespan, as well as in people with visible differences, disabilities, illness, neurodivergence, and larger bodies. Each chapter highlights the importance of understanding and embracing diversity in body image practice, emphasizing the significance of intersectionality in both research and real-world applications. Handbook of Diversity in Body Image empowers researchers, clinicians, and educators to broaden their understanding of and approach to body image discussions. By highlighting marginalized voices and presenting innovative frameworks, this volume equips the audience with the tools to advance research, improve clinical practice, and foster inclusivity in the study and promotion of positive body image worldwide.
