Clinical Manual of Eating Disorders

Providing sound therapeutic advice based on current research and clinical practice, this book includes detailed discussions of various aspects of assessment and treatment and features up-to-date evidence- and consensus-based information. Ranging from the determination of initial treatment approaches to problems posed by unique groups of patients, it is the first book to focus squarely on what psychiatrists need to know about the clinical assessment and management of patients with anorexia nervosa, bulimia nervosa, binge eating disorders, and obesity. "Clinical Manual of Eating Disorders" is an invaluable tool for psychiatrists that complements other resources for all professionals who see patients with these challenging conditions, whether mental health clinicians, primary care physicians, dieticians, psychologists, or social workers.
