While the prevalence of overweight and obesity has continued to increase, the understanding of the complex causes of these conditions by academics and the public has not. Much of the current literature regarding excess body weight focuses on reducing calorie intake, ignoring the complicated biological and behavioral nature of overeating. Hedonic Eating, Second Edition, explores the behavioral, biological, and social rewards of eating in our current world saturated with hyper-palatable food. Comprehensive chapters cover topics ranging from the neurochemistry of food reward to the hotly debated concept of 'food addiction', while providing relevant and up-to-date information from the current body of scientific literature regarding food reward. This new edition has been fully updated to reflect emerging research and evidence on issues such as eating behavior, psychological factors, metabolic influences, and the environment. New research has deepened our understanding of the interrelationship between the brain, behavior, and food consumption. This book offers another perspective to the current understanding of the issues of overeating and obesity rooted in scientific research.

Overeating and obesity are on the rise. Despite public health warnings, availability of diet books and programs, and the stigma associated with obesity, many people find it difficult to achieve and maintain a healthy body weight. While there are many books on the topic of caloric or need-based eating, obesity and overeating can also result from eating that is not driven by hunger. Recent research found that excess food intake is largely driven by the palatability of food and the pleasure derived from eating. Hedonic Eating: How the Pleasure of Food Affects Our Brain and Behavior will appeal to scientists, medical doctors, psychologists, counselors and students taking specialized courses that cover appetite. It will also appeal to the general public intersted in learning more about topics, including brain reward-related mechanisms associated with food intake, eating behaviors resulting from these changes in the brain, obesity, and overeating, and science-based approaches to combat the changing landscape of our food environment.

The growth of the field of eating disorder research has led to a vast array of empirical articles, and the development of new animal models that can be used to study these disorders continues to stimulate new research. Animal Models of Eating Disorders serves as a collection of detailed techniques contributed by experts in the field who are well-versed in the development and implementation of these models. Since eating disorders are complex and likely due to a combination of environmental, genetic, and social causes, the detailed chapters of this volume have been designed to highlight different contributing factors. Collectively, these chapters give a comprehensive and representative overview of both recently developed and classic methodologies used in the study of eating disorders. Written for the popular Neuromethods series, this work contains the kind of thorough description and implementation advice that promises successful results. Authoritative and practical, Animal Models of Eating Disorders aims to aid researchers in the use of animal models to assist in their investigation and characterization of the behaviors and neurochemical alterations associated with these devastating disorders.
