Malin (education and English, Binghamton U., State U. of New York) brings together 16 essays, personal accounts, and poems that pay tribute to women's experiences of exercise and exercise spaces as places of community, important stories of the body, parts of women's life narratives, and key to feminist identities. Academics in the humanities, education, law, and women's and literary theory, poets, writers, and artists from the US and Canada detail how they have found ways to exercise in their everyday lives, gain meaning from sites of physical activity and the companions they exercise with, and understand aspects of body image, aging, the feminine, strength, empowerment, the mind/body relationship, and friendship in dance, boxing, cycling, bodybuilding, rowing, skiing, running, walking, gymnastics, yoga, and at the gym. A few contributions have been previously published elsewhere. Annotation ©2010 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
