And then what? \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn this groundbreaking book, science journalist Trisha Gura explodes the myth that those who suffer from eating disorders, including anorexia nervosa and bulimia nervosa, are primarily teenage girls. In truth, twenty-five to thirty million American women twenty-five and older suffer from serious food issues, from obsessions with calorie counting to compulsions to starve then overeat. These diseases often linger from adolescence or emerge anew in the lives of adult women in ways that we are only now starting to recognize.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDrawing on her own experience with anorexia, as well as the most up-to-date research and extensive interviews with clinicians and sufferers, Gura presents a startling, timely, and imperative investigation of eating disorders all grown up, and offers hope through understanding.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Trisha Gura\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Harper Perennial\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/22\/2008\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 384\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.71lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.04h x 5.64w x 0.94d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780060761493\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eGura, Trisha:\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e - \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTrisha Gura, Ph.D., has written extensively for such publications as \u003cem\u003eScience, Nature\u003c\/em\u003e, \u003cem\u003eScientific American\u003c\/em\u003e, the \u003cem\u003eChicago Tribune\u003c\/em\u003e, \u003cem\u003ePrevention\u003c\/em\u003e, \u003cem\u003eChild, Health\u003c\/em\u003e, and \u003cem\u003eParents\u003c\/em\u003e.
