Description

Updated to meet contemporary concerns, this second edition is aimed at those who want to do something practical about anorexia nervosa/bulimia. Its contribution is the widely acknowledged whirlpool theory which unifies the physiological and psychological aspects of the illness. This provides much needed alternatives for the helpers who are all too often drawn into coercing the sufferer to eat, which is psychologically destructive, or ignoring the physical aspects of the problem which can be dangerous. The book also offers a basis for resolving continuing medical and legal dilemmas. To illustrate their approach, the authors draw extensively on their own research and many years of experience providing effective therapy.

Author Biography:

Marilyn Duker is a specialist in the process of recovery from anorexia nervosa/bulimia. Over three decades, and with a wealth of experience in working with sufferers at every stage of the illness, she has integrated theory and practice to establish a unique therapeutic approach. She has provided courses for relatives of sufferers and training for a variety of professional groups, including teachers, pastoral workers, nurses, dietitians and GPs. Roger Slade obtained his doctorate from the University of Bristol for his work on anorexia nervosa/bulimia and is also author of The Anorexia Nervosa Reference Book. One of the first to apply modern psychological research methods early in the 1970s, his original thinking is distinctive for its clarity and cohesiveness and continues both to inform and to inspire.
