Reviews

"A handbook that is intended to cover clinical research and practice in the area of eating disorders and obesity should be representative of the field, provide critical guidance, and be accessible to the nonspecialist. According to these criteria, this handbook succeeds. It accurately portrays progress and problems. In the chapters that involve science...the writing is clear and critical..." --Gerard P. Smith, MD of Weill Medical College of Cornell University in the New England Journal of Medicine - Volume 351, Number 2, July 8, 2004
