This volume provides researchers and clinicians with an insight
into recent developments in activity anorexia. Much of the basic
information on the topic has come from animal literature; the
theory of activity anorexia is built on an animal model of
self-starvation (rats placed on a single daily feeding run more and
more, over days stop eating, and die of starvation). Additionally,
experiments that for ethical or practical reasons could not be done
with humans may be conducted with other animals. The animal
research is extending the understanding of biologically-based
reward mechanisms that regulate eating and exercise,
environment-behavior interactions that affect anorexia, and the
biochemical changes that accompany physical activity and
starvation. Increasingly, however, the impact of physical activity
on human anorexia is being directly investigated--eight out of
fourteen research chapters in this volume are based on human
research. Some researchers are interested in the impact of
hyperactivity and caloric restriction on human reproductive
function. Other authors are investigating physically active
subgroups of people considered to be at risk for anorexia. Finally,
several clinician/researchers suggest how physical activity and
extreme dieting interact for anorexia nervosa patients. Chapter
authors were asked to present their views independent of the
editors' argument that, when it is present, physical activity is
central to anorexia. Many of the contributors disagree with the
editors about the details of activity anorexia. A few suggest that
excessive physical activity is either incidental to, or an
epiphenomenon of, anorexia. Most authors are, however, in accord
with the view that physical activity reduces food consumption which
further drives up activity that results in even less caloric
intake. No matter what their perspective, all contributors agree
that hyperactivity frequently accompanies self-starvation in humans
and other animals. The end result is a lively book that provides a
source of ideas for both researchers and practitioners.

Ivan Ilych Polensky, a young Ukrainian farmer, experiences a
life-changing event that brings his world crashing down, and
propels him into a race against time and forces of evil. At first,
Ivan's newfound spiritual clarity clashes with the chaos that
surrounds him. He suffers rejection from friends, family, even his
childhood love, the beautiful equestrian Katrina. Ivan's struggle
is both heartbreaking and joyous as he comes to understand his
recent transformation, and exchanged life. Branded an international
terrorist by the newly anointed General Gog, Ivan encounters world
views representing the spectrum of human emotion and impulse, from
secular to sacred. Trans Figuring Ivan takes the reader from earth
to heaven and hell and back, from bitter cold of the Ukraine to the
dangerous waters of the Mediterranean and the dusty, cutthroat
deserts of the Middle East. Ivan's humble spirit and poetic
optimism throughout his perilous quest in the days leading up to
the Rapture inspire and empower, making his victory our victory. R.
