Hunger for Understanding sets out to involve the young person directly in the process of recovering from anorexia nervosa. Its accessible format, wealth of practical ideas and reliable information will make it a helpful and valuable addition to the shelves of any therapist who works with young people with eating disorders.

Hunger for Understanding is an innovative workbook designed specifically for use with young people with anorexia nervosa in a therapeutic setting. Fully illustrated, it provides many practical tasks that will help the young person to reflect on their own personal experience of anorexia nervosa, to understand more about their experience, and to then engage with the recovery process.

Introduced by a therapist's guide, the workbook carefully combines cognitive-behavioural, motivational enhancement and psycho-educational approaches and techniques. The tasks can be accessed online and downloaded for use with patients, and a comprehensive list of further reading and useful organisations is included.

Hunger for Understanding is a 'must-have' tool for clinical psychologists, psychiatrists, nurses, cognitive-behavioural therapists, occupational therapists, counsellors and other professionals working with young people with anorexia nervosa.
