Below are the best books we could find on Anorexia.
Anorexia nervosa, often referred to just as anorexia, is an eating disorder classified as a psychological, social, and biological disease. Anorexia is frequently characterized by low body weight, food restriction, a distorted perception of weight, and an extreme fear of gaining weight; however, many who are anorexic may not appear to be overly skinny. Symptoms of anorexia include frequent weighing, excessive exercise and/or portion control, abuse of laxatives, and denial. And while anorexia is frequently discussed as a “women’s issue,” it affects all genders. Anorexia can have serious physical consequences and typically requires medical and psychological treatment.
