The Psychology of Bulimia Nervosa by Myra Cooper
This book provides a comprehensive review of the key psychological aspects of Bulimia Nervosa, along with associated problems, psychological theories and different treatment approaches. Drawing on research and theory from cognitive psychology and non-clinical areas, The Psychology of Bulimia Nervosa provides an original and challenging perspective on this debilitating condition. It questions assumptions about cognition and the role of standard cognitive therapy in treating the disease, suggests novel treatments, and outlines areas for further research activity.
This book never ceased to delight me as I turned page after pageIt was hard to identify any limitations with this book, as not only is it comprehensive, it is so well organized and presented that the reader can keep much of its contents in mind . . . This truly is an invaluable resource text as well as a clinical guide backed up by current knowledge and research in Bulimia Nervosa . . . Overall, this book is a 'gem' and 'must read' for anyone working with BN or related disorders. It is an open-minded book written by an expert in the field who seems to truly care about advancing our knowledge rather than promoting one theory at the expense of valuable information from others. As a consequence this further adds weight to a coherent and well thought out cognitive model for BN. * British Journal of Clinical Psychology, 43 *
