For those who endure the vicious cycle of eating disorders, such as anorexia or bulimia, misuse of food has become the way in which they express their emotional hunger and signal their distress, whether this is through obsessional dieting, compulsive eating or bingeing and vomiting. For women in particular, increasingly at odds with an emphatically marketed standard of slimline beauty, food can become a secret form of self-punishment. This book examines those areas of distress demonstrated in this way, covering both traditional and feminist ideas about sexuality and society, conflicts about success and competition, and complexity of family relationships. There is a wealth of practical information on how to tackle the problem.
