Infos

This is an edited book that brings together many of the most
distinguished researchers and clinicians in the field of food
misuse. The papers included are drawn from the conferences on
psychological approaches to eating disorders and obesity held at
the University of Hertfordshire in 2005 and 2006. It presents
current research while focusing on the application of this
new knowledge.

It covers both eating disorders and obesity in one volume, thus
positioning obesity firmly at one end of the food misuse continuum.
Chapters will cover subjects such as psychological and cultural
aspects of food use, using CBT for treating eating disorders, and
CBT group therapy for obesity.
