Do you or does someone you know suffer from an eating disorder, such as anorexia nervosa, bulimia nervosa or a less typical set of symptoms?

This book is relevant to any sufferer, if: - You are not yet sure about whether to seek help - You are not sure where to find help - Your family doctor or others recommend that you try a self-help approach - You are waiting for therapy with a clinician, and want to get the best possible start to beating your eating disorder
