Eating disorders are of increasing concern in the medical and psychiatric professions. Growing awareness that the arts therapies have something unique and positive to offer led to the publication of this book by experts in all areas of the arts therapies. The symptoms and aetiology ascribed to such disorders and the treatment methods prescribed to clients are discussed, and the chapters go on to focus on the use of specific arts therapies within this area, including discussions of the theoretical models they are based on, the methodologies used and the as yet small amount of research that has been completed.

Ditty Dokter is senior lecturer in dramatherapy at the School of Art and Design, University of Hertfordshire and Dramatherapist Senior 1, Professorial Unit, Addenbrooke's Hospital, Cambridge
