Anorexia Nervosa: The Wish to Change

By A.H. Crisp, Neil Joughin, Carol Bowyer, et al.

This guide to 'self-help' has become highly valued by sufferers from anorexia nervosa, their families and their carers. It relates to Arthur Crisp's much praised text Anorexia Nervosa: Let Me Be, now in its third reprint. Many sufferers report that Anorexia Nervosa: The Wish to Change has provided them with their first private opportunity to reconsider their position and future properly, and then to do more about them. Carers have found it particularly helpful as a joint tool in their work with patients, especially when used alongside the more recently published Anorexia Nervosa: Guidelines for Assessment and Treatment in Primary and Secondary Care and the Patient's Log Book from the same centre.

Reading is Beginning

As a person suffering with an eating disorder, I really appeciated that fact that this book does not "talk down" to a sufferer. I felt like my indivdual problems were recognised. After reading this book I am excited, I now have a plan of action for recovery. The book states 30 steps to recovery, but I think a better title is 30 steps to FREEDOM. I would recommend this book to any sufferer, if they want to seek help!
