Reviews
.,."I readily recommend the manual to new team members and trainees, as much for the principles of working with families with this condition as the detail of practice. I am grateful that Lock et al. have captured those principles so clearly and accessibly."--"Child and Adolescent Mental Health" "I highly recommend it for any therapist who has struggled with the difficult task of trying to keep a family focused on the arduous task of re-nourishing their adolescent to health. It gives a step by step approach to the therapist which will help her keep the focus on the initial presenting problem, and not become side-tracked with secondary albeit compelling problems, as the illness of anorexia will invariably do to both therapist and family alike."--"Canadian Child Psychiatry Review" .,."the book provides a starting point for therapists wishing to pursue an evidence-based approach to the treatment of anorexia nervosa in adolescents. It contains some good ideas and will undoubtedly be a useful resource for mental health practitioners interested in helping adolescents overcome this serious disorder."--"Behavior Research and Therapy" "The theoretical underpinning of the Maudsley approach is the view that the adolescent is embedded in the family and that the parents are critical to the ultimate success in treatment....In summary, this manual on family therapy for adolescents with anorexia nervosa with a short duration of illness enables recovery without admission to hospital....This book--the first specific manualized approach available--is highly recommended for all professionals engaged in work with adolescents suffering from anorexia nervosa."--"Journal of Clinical Psychiatry" "This work was designed to be most valuable to psychotherapists, and it succeeds well in this mission."--"Journal of Developmental and Behavioral Pediatrics" "This book is an important addition to the literature on the treatment of anorexia nervosa. It provides an authoritative and detailed description of the 'Maudsley method, ' the leading family-based treatment for adolescents with anorexia nervosa. The book will be an invaluable resource for clinicians for years to come." --Christopher G. Fairburn, DM, FRCPsych, Professor of Psychiatry, University of Oxford "Family-based treatment is one of the few demonstrably effective interventions for anorexia nervosa. This treatment manual clearly explains the development of this approach and, even more important, provides a detailed description of how it can be implemented. Lock and his colleagues have provided practitioners with a most useful tool to assist their patients. This book will be required reading for all who treat youngsters with anorexia nervosa." --B. Timothy Walsh, MD, Ruane Professor of Psychiatry, Columbia University College of Physicians and Surgeons; Director, Eating Disorders Research Unit, New York State Psychiatric Institute "During the past decade, progress in the mental health sciences has been reflected in the increasing refinement of empirically based treatment techniques that can be manualized for general application. This book is a fine example of this type of progress, which has been exciting to witness. Lock and his coauthors are to be congratulated for putting together such an excellent and much-needed treatment manual. The authors manage to compress detailed instruction and rich, relevant case material into a powerful volume that delights by its erudition and persuasiveness. Highly recommended for all who are serious about bringing their therapeutic skills to the cutting edge." --Hans Steiner, MD, Professor of Psychiatry, Stanford University School of Medicine, "...I readily recommend the manual to new team members and trainees, as much for the principles of working with families with this condition as the detail of practice.
