La prima parte fornisce informazioni relative a anoressia nervosa, bulimia nervosa, disturbo da alimentazione incontrollata, illustrando dettagli relativi alla frequenza di tali patologie e ai fattori di rischio; il capitolo 4 descrive i trattamenti per i disturbi del comportamento alimentare (di cosa si tratta, dove vengono efFettuati, cosa ci si può aspettare da queste terapie) e si parla dei problemi quotidiani che deve affrontare chi vive con una persona che soffre di un disturbo alimentare, sottolineando l'importanza del sostegno dei genitori nei confronti dei figli, ma anche del sostegno che gli stessi genitori possono ricevere da parte di counselor o di gruppi di auto-aiuto. Infine si affronta il tema della prevenzione dei disturbi alimentari e dell'importanza di una prevenzione precoce. (Alice)."
