Description
This guide draws together the latest developments in eating disorders. Together with its companion volume Annual Review of Eating Disorders Part 2, this resource covers the twenty key topics including binge eating, trauma, self-help, assessment and negative body image.
It is a compilation of reviews from leading scientists and clinicians, and is the essential update for busy professionals and health researchers, with a clear emphasis on clinical implications. It also provides invaluable information for psychologists, psychiatrists, dieticians, family doctors, pediatricians, counsellors and educators.
‘Very important. Successful. Well respected. Comprehensive. Appropriate for all clinicians, researchers, and trainees who work in the area of eating disorders. A great reference for those needing direction on the current available treatments.’
Shiela M Dowd, PhD, Rush University Medical Center, Illinois, USA
‘Presents information in manageable chunks which are easy to digest. Research is clearly linked to clinical practice. Easy to read. Helpful. Comprehensive. A valuable resource for new as well as experienced clinicians.’ Primary Care and Community Psychiatry
‘Last year’s Review was very well received, by researchers and clinicians alike, and I am confident that the same will be true this year. Keeping track of the latest developments in the research on eating disorders is a major challenge for all of us. The abundant information that is now available via journals, online reference web sites, university databases, and individualized e-alerts can be so overwhelming that it is difficult to see the forest trough the trees. Integrating results from various sources and translating these findings into day-to-day clinical practice is not easily done. The Annual Review truly is the best way to stay up to date!’
Eric F van Furth, in the Foreword
