Negative Positive
Title: Informative, entertaining. Changed the way I view breasts.
Review: Just finished this book and truly enjoyed it. The opening chapters set up the subject well, then I really got involved in chpt. 4, "A Matter of Life and Death," about breast implants. From then on I just poured through the book, entertained and enlightened all the way. Loved chpt 10, "The great and terrible breast," which told about how breasts figured in mythology, religious art, and folk tales in different ages & cultures. I think it would be great for religious art in churches to show Mary breast-feeding, or with the infant Jesus at her exposed breast, as was evidently common in early Christian art. Too bad we lost that. This is a good book; after reading it you won't think of breasts as a cultural icon, or of your own breasts, for that matter, the same way.
Is the review positive or negative?
