The treatment of eating disorders remains controversial, protracted, and often unsuccessful, and therapists face a number of impediments to the optimal care of their patients, such as transference, and difficulties in dealing with the patient's family. This volume discusses the pressure and responsibility faced by practising therapists in the treatment of eating disorders. Central themes are the legal, ethical and interpersonal issues involving compulsory treatment, food refusal and forced feeding, managed care, treatment facilities, terminal care, and how the sex of the therapist affects treatment.
