Gaining
The Truth About Life After Eating Disorders
Aimee Liu
285 pg (hard), '07 (Code: GNG) $24.99 |
Decades after her initial recovery from anorexia and the publication of her first book, Solitaire, Liu had a relapse, which set her on a new course of self-discovery. Here, she combines personal interviews with cutting edge research to propose that societal pressure, popular culture, and family dysfunction cannot "make" one anorexic; rather it takes a particular genetic predisposition and temperament. Readers will learn who is susceptible and why recovery requires more than just good nutrition.
