Eating disorders affect 1.25 million people in the UK, and the
incidence is rising. The DSM-5 specifies diagnostic criteria for
eight types of eating disorder, with anorexia nervosa, bulimia
nervosa, and binge eating disorder accounting for the majority of
cases. This new addition to the Oxford Specialist Handbook of
Psychiatry series covers the aetiology, epidemiology, risk factors,
and diagnostic criteria for all forms of eating disorders,
alongside patient management within the community and inpatient
settings. Also featuring chapters on emerging eating disorders,
such as orthorexia and muscle dysmorphia, medicolegal issues
surrounding involuntary hospitalisation and nasogastric feeding,
and acute emergency care, this Handbook is a comprehensive yet
succinct addition to the literature for all doctors, nurses, and
members of the multidisciplinary team in managing the complex and
multifactorial conditions that arise in patients with eating
disorders. Each chapter is accompanied by case stories drawn from
real-life examples, taking the reader through from initial
presentation to treatment, and the key need-to-know facts and
current evidence-based treatments. The Oxford Specialist Handbook
of Eating Disorders is a new go-to resource for the crucial
information around this multifaceted area of medicine.
