The secondary audience is general clinicians such as RDs, PCPS and adjunctive treatment providers. I would definitely use this book as a text for my graduate course on the treatment of eating disorders. I believe this text book could be used as either a primary source or a supplemental text depending on the course and the teachers style. I currently use Laura Goodmans and Mona Villapianos text entitled Eating Disorders published by Brunner-Rutledge as the main text. I chose this text for two reasons. First it is easy to read and clearly discusses treatment of eating disorders in a succinct way. Secondly, my students are both clinically trained and from other backgrounds such as teaching. Therefore, this text does a nice job for the lay person as well. I liked the concept overall. Having the pioneers in the field write about their own clinical experience and learning process as well as give advice about what works and what does not is invaluable. I also liked the idea that this text could be used as an alternative to the medical model. This is the way I practice so it would be easy to use this text in my supervision of clinicians or in my graduate courses. I agree with the assumptions in the book and like the idea that the goal of treatment is to empower the client to take a more active role. Also I use a lot of CBT in my work but know from experience that it takes many other modalities to fully address the underlying issues and help someone fully recovery from a clinical eating disorder or a body image issue. There is definitely a place in the field for this text. Page 2 I think that the perspective of the book is original as these are the pioneers in a field that is still very young. Many folks go to workshops to hear these authors speak. For those who are unable to attend or who want to hear more from them would buy this book. I especially like the idea of clinicians reflecting on there own professional growth. I really think that this is what is most helpful to those of us who are more senior in the field and find it hard to find a book that is not "too basic" about the treatment. I believe the material is timely and could become a classic in the field. It is important to document the history of treatment and as previously mentioned people such as Margo Maine and Bill Davis entered this field at a time when little was known about effective treatment. I also like that the book is based on clinical practice not clinical research. For many of us, this is a more useful text. I would defer to the review in the book proposal as it is very thorough and complete. I would like to see a chapter or two on Family Therapy maybe one on the Maudsley Approach and the other on traditional Family therapy. I think this is missing in the text and is often missing at conferences. It is a vital part of the recovery process especially for teens and should be included. Also I did not see mention of binge eating disorders and would like to see this included along with clinical thoughts and reflections on treating anorexia and bulimia. The other topics were all interesting and seemed useful to include. While the text is not completed, it seemed that the length was adequate. Once again, including the family therapy/systems piece would be important and would add to the overall size of the book. The writing style seemed appropriate for the audience. I like Dr. Emmetts spirituality chapter but would want him to get clearer as to what he is writing about and what the structure would be as I was a bit confused by his write up. Although I know Steve would be an invaluable contributor to the process. I think this type of
