Description and Table of Contents
Description
Reviews findings on eating disorders and their treatment. It examines the physiological, neural and metabolic events associated with anorexia and bulimia, as well as responses in individuals who are free of eating disorders but who are exposed to fasting, starvation or intermittent eating.
