Abstract: This Handbook is an indispensable guide for the multidisciplinary management of eating disorders. It discusses a broad range of issues, from managing high-risk patients, the challenges of inserting feeding tubes, addressing nutritional aspects and dealing with additional disorders which might complicate matters, such as diabetes, coeliac disease and cystic fibrosis. It also addresses the issue of fertility pregnancy and eating disorders in children and adolescents as well as where the patients family fits in and what the optimal environment for patient management is.Chapters contain key checklists and flow diagrams and there is an abundance of pictures and conversations, coloured diagrams, charts, maps and boxes, which benefits readers with a range of preferred learning styles and assists retention of key points. With vignettes taken from real but strenuously anonymised cases this bookappeals to clinicians' preference for case-based learning. The book also functions as a practical manual of 'What to do - and what NOT to do' with practical scenarios including the 'when, where, how, why and with whom' of assessing and managing patients with eating disorders. In the acute situation, clinicians will be able to open certain chapters and charts to help guide the team.This guide is primarily aimed at post-graduate physicians managing patients with Eating disorders on a Gastrointestinal, Endocrine or general medical ward, who are seeking to deepen their expertise with a view to sitting higher professional examinations. It is of interest to both medical and psychiatric clinicians. The book would also be of use to Nursing staff, who are interested indeveloping a compassionate understanding of the driving force to their patients' sabotagingbehavioursand to learn skills to cope with these.
