Synopsis: Although public nudity as a form of political action has a history stretching back at least as far as Lady Godiva, Naked Politics: Nudity, Political Action, and the Rhetoric of the Body by Brett Lunceford, is one of the few books that examine political nudity from a rhetorical standpoint. Beginning with the notion that the body itself is communicative beyond the ability to speak, this work examines a variety of cases in which people employ the disrobed body for political ends.
