Title: EATING DISORDERS; ED. BY MARIO MAJ
Description: Eating disorders are characterised by a persistent pattern of aberrant eating or dieting behaviour. These patters are associated with significant emotion, physical and relational distress. Researchers estimate the incidence of eating disorders at somewhere between 1 and 40f the adolescent and early adult population, and most cases of anorexia and bulimia nervosa remain undiagnosed or are treated inappropriately. Written by an internationally renowned psychiatrist, this book reduces the gap between research evidence and clinical evidence in order to improve the diagnosis and treatment of these mental disorders with severe physical consequences.
