"This is a comprehensive book, suitable for a wide range of
professionals who deal with children and adolescents with eating
disorders. It is clearly written and refers to known research in
this area as well as offering practical guidance on assessment and
management based on a depth of experience at Great Ormond Street
Hospital."
-Anne Stewart, The Warneford Hospital, Oxford
"This is an unusually successful book as it has the coherence of a
single authored book, but with the range of expertise, ideas, and
creativity of a multiauthored book. It is a brilliant tribute to
team work. The multifaceted nature of eating disorders requires a
wide range of expertise and this is certainly found in this book
with contributions from psychiatry, psychology, physiotherapy,
teaching, internal medicine, radiology, and various forms of
therapy, family work, individual therapy, and cognitive-behavioural
therapy. There have been rapid changes in the field in terms of
aetiological and treatment research and so the updated second
edition is to be welcomed."
-Janet Treasure, Institute of Psychiatry, London
