Summary: | Maintains that a systematic exploration of the predominant theoretical paradigms and research approaches is needed with an emphasis on the question of how the field of eating disorders may be advanced incrementally and exponentially. It is suggested that cautious editorial or grant review practices tend to make it difficult for researchers to develop novel theoretical concepts or intervention approaches. This book addresses this problem by presenting chapters that focus on classification and etiology, treatment, and prevention of eating disorders. Contributors focused their chapters on the following questions: How can progress be made in this field? What new paths need to be explored, what methods appear most promising, and what questions have yet to be raised? (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2004 APA, all rights reserved).
