Peggy Claude-Pierre runs an eating-disorders clinic in Canada which takes only those patients who are desperately ill and close to death. Her attitude is to refuse to accept that anyone suffering from anorexia needs to die, and her methods have had a 100% success rate in curing her patients. After bringing her two daughters back from a similar state, Peggy has treated and cured hundreds of children and adults, developing a programme based upon unconditional love and positive reinforcement which is the basis of this book. Having become convinced that eating disorders stem from a complex negative mindset, often established at birth and which causes an overwhelming sense of worthlessness, the author aims to show how this mindset can be reversed, and thus ultimately cure the eating disorder affecting the patient.
