America’s fixation with the shape and size of women’s breasts is well
recognised, and in Cleavage Nora Jacobson gives the century-long
history of breast implants the serious, witty look it deserves. Anxiety about
flat chests led to barely believable technology, until misgivings about
implants’ health effects began to calm things down. American bosoms are facing
an uncertain future. Published by Rutgers University Press, £41.50, ISBN
