Please correct author's name and add this summary in English (provided below).

The book is written by author Jackqueline Hope. I own this book, and can tell you she penned it herself, with no one else involved in the writing. The only names credited are for the cover: cover design (Gillian Tsintziras), cover photographer (Dan Couto), and hair and makeup (Paul Langill). Victor Malarek is nowhere mentioned in this book.

Also, the book was written in English, and the summary printed on the book's jacket reads this, and I kindly ask (or suggest?) that a librarian copy/paste in the book's profile (thanks!):

Big Bold and Beautiful is about living large in a culture obsessed with thinness and perfection.

Jackqueline Hope, the entrepreneur and former model, tells of her pursuit of a perfect body and her battle for self-acceptance at sizes 12 through 28. On her journey, she looks at the health concerns and myths of excess weight, as well as eating obsessions and excessive dieting. She also sizes up fashion, sheds light on the importance of exercise and uncovers the sensual woman.

Insightful and liberating, Big Bold and Beautiful debunks society's view of the ideal female form and offers all women a positive and effective way of relating to their bodies.

A portion of the author's royalties will be donated to Sheena's Place, a non-profit organization that assists people dealing with eating disorders and body image concerns.
