Book excerpt: Debbi DiMaggio has created a splash with her first book, contained beauty: photography, reflections & swimming pools. Inspiring, breathtaking and honest -- contained beauty is much more than a beautiful collection of photographs. It is a visual journey that begins with "who you are in order to know where you are going." By weaving her DiMaggio writer's flare throughout the chapters in this book, Debbi takes readers through a photographic excursion to some of the world's most stunning swimming pools. By honestly seeing in her own reflection as to who she has become, Debbi reaches out to help others living "contained and without joy." Following the Taoist Proverb, No one can see their reflection in running water. It is only in still water that we can see, Debbi encourages all to take time with this artful collection of retro, luxury, and modern swimming pools and come away inspired. Printed by Four Colour Print Group, the 168-pages in this coffee table book are filled with exploding colors and dramatic images by photographers from around the world. Debbi's definition of art: Architecture+Landscape+Swimming Pool=Inspired Beauty.

Book excerpt: Did you know that as many as 80% of women are applying makeup incorrectly for their face shape? By "incorrectly", we mean that these women are not maximizing the beauty effects of the makeup products that they use. Many of us know that placing bronzer, blush, and highlighter in different places can create an entirely different "face." It makes sense that a "how to apply makeup" book be used in the home of every person who wears makeup to help you always put your best face forward.

Book excerpt: “[Beauty Sick] will blow the top off the body image movement…provocative and necessary.” — Rebellious Magazine An award-winning psychology professor reveals how the cultural obsession with women's appearance is an epidemic that harms women's ability to get ahead and to live happy, meaningful lives, in this powerful, eye-opening work in the vein of Peggy Orenstein and Sheryl Sandberg. Today’s young women face a bewildering set of contradictions when it comes to beauty. They don’t want to be Barbie dolls but, like generations of women before them, are told they must look like them. They’re angry about the media’s treatment of women but hungrily consume the outlets that belittle them. They mock modern culture’s absurd beauty ideal and make videos exposing Photoshopping tricks, but feel pressured to emulate the same images they criticize by posing with a "skinny arm." They understand that what they see isn’t real but still download apps to airbrush their selfies. Yet these same young women are fierce fighters for the issues they care about. They are ready to fight back against their beauty-sick culture and create a different world for themselves, but they need a way forward. In Beauty Sick, Dr. Renee Engeln, whose TEDx talk on beauty sickness has received more than 250,000 views, reveals the shocking consequences of our obsession with girls’ appearance on their emotional and physical health and their wallets and ambitions, including depression, eating disorders, disruptions in cognitive processing, and lost money and time. Combining scientific studies with the voices of real women of all ages, she makes clear that to truly fulfill their potential, we must break free from cultural forces that feed destructive desires, attitudes, and words—from fat-shaming to denigrating commentary about other women. She provides inspiration and workable solutions to help girls and women overcome negative attitudes and embrace their whole selves, to transform their lives, claim the futures they deserve, and, ultimately, change their world.

In Doing Business with Beauty, sociologist Adia Harvey Wingfield examines this often-overlooked group and one of the most popular businesses run by these entrepreneurs: hair salons. Using in-depth interviews with hair salon owners, Doing Business with Beauty explores several facets of the business of owning a hair salon, including the process of becoming an owner, the dynamics of the owner-employee relationship, and the factors that steer black women to work in the hair industry. Through Harvey Wingfield's research we can understand the black female business owner's struggle for autonomy and her success in entrepreneurship. Book jacket.
