Description
The strength of this book is that it is accessible, easy to read, very practical and has a strong practice focus. It provides some excellent ideas for intervention with people with eating disorders, many of which would be transferable to other areas of practice and the case studies bring the application of theory, technique and task setting to life. The author is clearly passionate about her subject and this is often reflected in vivid and evocative prose. Overall, I think there is much to learn from the material here, including some key theoretical considerations, which are both illuminating and though provoking. This book will certainly be of interest to anyone working in the field of eating disorders and represents a useful addition to the literature in this area
