Eating Disorders presents a comprehensive and accessible investigation of eating disorders, including but not limited to anorexia nervosa, and bulimia nervosa.

This book was very imformational and helpful to girls an boys to really understand what eating disorders are. It is straight to the point about different kinds of eating disorders but it is lengthy with not many pictures. I liked how they included real life stories of girls and boys who have experiencedn eating disorders and the story of them over coming it.
