The Family Eating Disorder (FED) Manual is written by a team of professionals, with input from family members, offering a wide range of eating disorder information in a user friendly and interactive. It balances biological with psychological and social issues and discusses the newest neurobiological research in a conversational and practical manner so that families can better understand what is happening in the mind and lives of their loved ones. One chapter provides help with communication while another is a "Tool Box". Each chapter has questions at the end for notes and summary points. This book is a comprehensive guide on how to help manage emotions, eating and schedules during the recovery process of an eating disorder."The FED Manual "nicely balances both biological issues and psychosocial issues....it is clearly written, holds one's attention and avoids redundancy. It includes loads of state-of-the-art information in an accessible, easy to understand style." James E. Mitchell, MD, Christopherson Professor and Chair, Department of Clinical Neuroscience, University of North Dakota School of Medicine and Health Sciences; President and Scientific Director, Neuropsychiatric Research Institute"This is the best Workbook for families and patients that I have seen. Dr Hill and her distinguished collaborators have successfully integrated complex psychological and neurobiological constructs into language that families and patients can understand. In addition to providing a sophisticated understanding of Eating Disorders, the authors also offer practical suggestions for how to manage and recover from the illnesses. I found the "Tool Box" section of the manual to be particularly innovative and helpful. This is a significant contribution to the field of Eating Disorders." -Craig Johnson, PhD, FAED, CEDS, Chief Clinical Officer, Eating Recovery Center, Denver, Colorado
