Synopsis:
This book examines the relationship between body image disturbances and eating disorders in our most vulnerable population: children and adolescents. Editors J. Kevin Thompson and Linda Smolak present a dynamic approach that combines current research, assessment techniques, and suggestions for treatment and prevention. Contributing authors offer techniques for treating obesity and eating disorders in children, point to possible sources of these disorders, map out the subtleties of working with youth of diverse ethnicities, and identify the connection between sexual abuse and body image.
About the Author: J. Kevin Thompson is a professor of psychology at the University of South Florida.
Linda Smolak is a professor in the departments of psychology and women's and gender studies at Kenyon College.
