Eating Disorders: Handbook for sufferers and relatives - Paperback

by Emmanuel LeJeune (Author), Alexandra Nowak (Author)

This book opens a new window onto the complex world of eating disorders - scientifically sound, close to clinical reality and, at the same time, forward-looking. It shows how dynamically diagnostics, psychotherapy, technology and pharmacology have developed in recent years and how these advances are leading to more precise, individualised and effective treatment methods. The volume not only highlights current research and innovative forms of therapy, but also focuses on those groups whose needs have long been overlooked: children and adolescents, men, neurodivergent people and those with chronic conditions. This creates a comprehensive picture of a field in transition - full of challenges, but also full of new opportunities for better care and sustainable change. A book for anyone who wants to understand how modern psychiatry and psychotherapy are rethinking eating disorders today - and what the future of treatment may look like.
