"In the second edition of this landmark work, Fairburn and Brownell
have again boldly linked eating disorders and obesity in one
authoritative volume. It provides the clinician and the researcher,
who formerly had to master two different literatures, with a
splendid overview of the very latest information in 112 short,
superbly crafted chapters. The first edition of this volume made
history; this second edition is even better."--Albert Stunkard,
M.D.
"Fairburn and Brownell have produced the definitive handbook
integrating the fields of obesity and eating disorders. This second
edition of the handbook is even better than the first. Well
organized and carefully edited, it is unmatched in providing
comprehensive and authoritative coverage of both fields. The book
is an indispensable resource for clinicians and researchers alike.
It is also a blessing for anyone teaching a course in the general
area."--G. Terence Wilson, PhD
Praise for the First Edition
"The scope of this new compendium is impressive, with 101 chapters
contributed by a distinguished roster of internationally recognized
investigators and clinicians....The user-friendly nature of the
book is apparent in the readability of the individual
chapters....There are remarkably few areas of substantive
duplication in coverage....Looking back over the book, I am
reminded of the editors' comments in the preface regarding 'the
regrettable separation of the eating disorders and obesity
fields.'....For clinicians and investigators, this outstanding
handbook should help to bridge the historical gap between those
fields."--The New England Journal of Medicine
"In the weeks [this book] has been in my office I have used it more
than any other text. It is what it claims to be, both
'comprehensive' and a 'handbook'. It provides the reader, novice or
expert, with instant informed opinion and points them to
additional, more detailed sources to continue
investigation....Bringing together such an international collection
of distinguished scientists and clinicians under one cover may be
an important step to help the scientific community, the general
public, and Government funding recognize that both [eating
disorders and obesity] are in need of action and in a coordinated
way. Clinical psychologists with a current or putative interest in
either eating disorders or obesity should have access to this
book."--The British Journal of Clinical Psychology
"The editors of this book have been successful in presenting and
integrating all that is currently known about eating disorders and
obesity into one well-organized, carefully edited, sound,
user-friendly book. This text is a must for the libraries of
practitioners working in the fields of obesity and eating
disorders."--Journal of the American Dietetic Association
"This multi-author textbook successfully conveys state-of-the-art
information in brief yet authoritative chapters on fundamental
issues, basic science, assessments, clinical characteristics, and
treatments of all three of the eating disorders....Invaluable for
clinicians and students."--Readings
"This volume was boldly conceived....[Brownell and Fairburn] have
attempted to cover extensive aspects of both eating disorders and
obesity, to tap many of the world experts, to present controversial
as well as conventional perspectives to enrich documented data with
clinical insights, to be useful to generalists as well as
specialists, to elucidate research methodology as well as clinical
techniques, and to be current in a rapidly changing field.
Remarkably, they have accomplished all this with impressive
success....I recommend this book highly to all professionals who
work with eating-disordered or overweight patients."--Eating
Disorders
"Authoritative, accessible and practical."--Idea Today
"On occasion, a book is published that is so unique in its
contribution and so completely fulfills its lofty goals that it is
bound to become a classic the moment the first copy rolls off the
press. This volume edited by Brownell and Fairburn is one of those
classics....Both editors have demonstrated throughout their careers
a broad-based perspective that is clearly evident in this
collaborative effort....The volume stands out for...its integration
of eating disorders and obesity across disciplines, its
comprehensiveness, and its synoptic style....One cannot overlook
the reasonable price of the book...it is a true bargain that is
rare among today's highly inflated book prices. Eating Disorders
and Obesity succeeds as a valuable and unique scholarly
contribution. I recommend it highly for the reference library of
anyone interested in obesity, eating disorders, or behavioral
medicine."--Contemporary Psychology
"It is certainly good to see a volume bringing together material on
all the eating disorders, including those that result in obesity.
Indeed, the range of the book is without doubt impressive; its
sections include the regulation of eating and weight, dieting and
body image, measurement, classification, clinical characteristics
and history of eating disorders, epidemiology and medical aspects
as well as a section devoted to the major treatment
initiatives."--Child Psychology and Psychiatry
'Excellent... Serves as an encyclopedia of current knowledge on
everything having to do with eating disorders and obesity.' -
Cognitive Therapy Today'Breadth of coverage is what makes this
[book] special, together with a genuine interest in bringing
together two clinical fields that remain apart, occasionally in
conflict. This is a book that will make many journeys from my
bookshelf to desk. And I recommend it to anyone with an interest in
obesity or eating disorders, student or professor, who is curious
to find out about what lies beyond their own specialty.' -
International Association for the Study of Obesity Newsletter 'This
book should be required reading for all medical students... It is
also a wonderful quick reference book for anyone treating patients
with eating disorders because the chapters are well written, short,
and to the point.' - Psychosomatics'Well organized and carefully
edited... An indispensable resource for clinicians and researchers
alike. It is also a blessing for anyone teaching a course in the
general area.' - G. Terence Wilson, PhD'The breadth of topics
covered in this volume guarantees that it will be the book to be
consulted when a question on any issue in eating disorders or
obesity is raised by a student, a client, or another professional.'
