"Professionals and families need to work together to help people with eating disorders. This book tells us why this is true and offers specific strategies to make it happen. This is a terrific book and long overdue!" - James Lock, Stanford University, California, USA"The aim of this enthusiastic book is to integrate treatments from a wide range of professional and lay experts who have learned how best to treat persons with eating disorders. The model for family therapy has taught us how to mobilize parental help and this approach can now be extended to enlist contributions from carers, partners and recovered patients themselves. This book is a cornucopia of treatment ideas and should be read by those who strive to help sufferers from eating disorders." - Gerald Russell, Maudsley Hospital, London, UK "Professionals and families need to work together to help people with eating disorders.
