Weight Management
A Practitioner’s Guide Dympna Pearson and Clare Grace
Amid an alarming rise in the prevalence of obesity, there has been a similar rapid expansion in the theory and evidence base surrounding its management but limited detail on the practical application of lifestyle treatments.

Written by renowned experts Dympna Pearson and Clare Grace, the book is intended as a ready reference for those working in both acute and community settings throughout the different and demanding stages of the weight management process. It explains how effective evidence-based programmes, structured to address the key components of diet and physical activity and integrated with a behavioural approach, can achieve improved outcomes.
