For the first time in one volume, many of the world's most esteemed
eating disorders prevention experts share their opinions and
recommendations about future directions for the field. Employing
"The Last Word" format of writing concise editorials about a
focused area of research, authors from four countries contribute
thirteen chapters with diverse points of view. The approaches range
from large scale, macro-environmental calls for change through
public policy to the more intimate promotion of positive youth
identity for buffering against eating disorders. Included are
retrospective looks at the development of prevention programs with
an eye toward best practices moving forward, calls for integrating
eating disorders interventions with existing efforts in the obesity
and health promotion fields, examples of successful change through
public policy and social justice, and a cry for gender
inclusiveness, which has missing in female dominated strategies.
More personal-level recommendations look at the efficacy of
mindfulness, yoga, intuitive eating and exercise, and the
importance of forming healthy self-identity. Informed by decades of
investigation, the authors-all of whom have conducted numerous
studies, programs, and research projects-offer the insights they've
learned and the lessons that they each believe will make a
difference in reducing eating disorders. This book was originally
published as a special issue of Eating Disorders: The Journal of
Treatment and Prevention.
