Caring for a Loved One with an Eating Disorder: The New Maudsley
Skills-Based Training Manual provides a framework for carer skills
workshops which can be used by anyone working with these
conditions. Based on the successful New Maudsley Model, which
equips carers with the knowledge and skills needed to support those
with an eating disorder, the book consists of two sections which
will help facilitators to deliver skills workshops to carers. The
first section provides the theoretical background, while the second
uses exercises to bring the New Maudsley Model to life. The skills
workshops provide a much-needed lifeline, giving carers an
opportunity to meet in a safe, non-judgemental and confidential
environment, and to learn to recognise that changes in their own
responses can be highly beneficial. With session-by-session
guidelines and handouts for participants, Caring for a Loved One
with an Eating Disorder: The New Maudsley Skills-Based Training
Manual will be of aid to anyone working with someone coping with
these conditions.

In 'At the Frontlines of Development' former World Bank country
directors recount their experiences, both as managers of the World
Bank's programs in global economic hotspots of the 1990s as well as
throughout their careers in development economics. These essays
detail, among many stories of development in the 1990s, how China
and India lifted hundreds of millions out of poverty, while Russia
collapsed; how Bosnia and Herzegovina and Mozambique remade their
war-ravaged economies; and how Thailand, Turkey, and Argentina fell
into financial crisis. These remarkable stories, told in
first-person by the country directors who were there to witness
them, provide candid assessments of development in the 1990s'what
succeeded, what failed, and what lessons emerged. This book is part
of a larger effort undertaken by the World Bank to understand the
development experience of the 1990s, an extraordinary eventful
decade. Each of the project's three volumes serves a different
purpose. 'Economic Growth in the 1990s' provides comprehensive
analysis of the decade's development experience, while 'Development
Challenges in the 1990s' offers insights on the practical concerns
faced by policymakers.
