It is the first book that looks specifically at childhood onset anorexia nervosa and eating disorders. The Editors' aim has been to integrate theory, research and practice. The book shows how varied and complex the eating disorders of childhood and early adolescence are. It includes a detailed review of the classification, epidemiology, causation and presentation of the various eating disorders. The opening chapter is written by the mother of a young sufferer, and describes in detail her experiences as well as those of other mothers in similar situations. The latter half of the book is devoted to a very practical description of the treatment techniques for these problems. In association with Amazon.com | |
