This book provides the first comprehensive guide to the practice of "enhanced" cognitive behavior therapy (CBT-E), the latest version of the leading empirically supported treatment for eating disorders. Written with the practitioner in mind, the book demonstrates how this transdiagnostic approach can be used with the full range of eating disorders seen in clinical practice. Christopher Fairburn and colleagues describe in detail how to tailor CBT-E to the needs of individual patients, and how to adapt it for adolescents and patients who require hospitalization. Also addressed are frequently encountered co-occurring disorders and how to manage them. Reproducible appendices feature the Eating Disorder Examination interview and questionnaire.

Editorial Reviews
Review
"With his evidence-based, 'enhanced' treatment, Fairburn takes CBT to a new level. This book is written explicitly for clinicians, who will find the clearly written, practical guidance invaluable. Of particular interest are the authoritative description of the psychopathology of eating disorders and the lucid analysis of the management and treatment of underweight patients and those with multiple comorbidities. This is the definitive clinical account of CBT for eating disorders."--G. Terence Wilson, PhD, Oscar K. Buros Professor of Psychology, Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey
"Over the past 30 years, Fairburn has made immense contributions to our understanding and treatment of patients with eating disorders. This timely, clearly written, immensely informative, and very user-friendly book provides just what the clinician needs--a practical guide to all phases of treatment. Outlining his transdiagnostic model, Fairburn describes the processes that underlie all eating disorders and gives specific examples of how to assess, educate, and help patients with any eating disorder. Treatment is divided into stages, with clear guidelines for exactly what to say or do. This book will quickly become the preferred clinical guide in the eating disorders field. Fairburn and his colleagues should be commended for bringing state-of-the-art research to state-of-the-art practice. Bravo!"--Robert L. Leahy, PhD, Department of Psychiatry, Weill Cornell Medical College, New York Presbyterian Hospital
"Another milestone by the field’s foremost pioneer, this book explains how to treat eating disorders in exquisite detail, and does so with a rich theoretical and empirical foundation as its basis. This will be the authoritative volume for many years to come."--Kelly D. Brownell, PhD, Director, Rudd Center for Food Policy and Obesity, Yale University
"From the most prominent group in the world studying the nature and treatment of eating disorders comes this cutting-edge treatment guide, which spans all eating disorder diagnoses as well as conditions that fall outside current diagnostic criteria. Based on a solid empirical foundation, the transdiagnostic enhanced CBT approach will immediately become the gold standard for the treatment of eating disorders."--David H. Barlow, PhD, ABPP, Professor of Psychology and Psychiatry, Boston University
"Fairburn is not only a well known clinical researcher in the field of eating disorders but is also a clear and effective writer. The book is remarkably easy to read--each concept is clearly illustrated and the book''s figures, charts, and diagrams further illuminate the text. Examples included in the text, such as common patient questions, vignettes, and sample therapist responses, help make the concepts and explanations presented in this guide easy to grasp. Perhaps most importantly, this book provides valuable insight into the treatment of a challenging clinical population....The ideas presented in this book are provocative, questioning the conventional classification of eating disorders and offering a treatment based on a transdiagnostic approach. The publication of this book is quite timely as the eating disorders field ponders the most meaningful way to revise the diagnostic categories for the upcoming edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual for Mental Disorders, DSM-5....Useful to both novice and more experienced clinicians. It would perhaps be most helpful for clinicians familiar with CBT who work with patients with eating disorders. Psychiatry residents or graduate students in areas such as psychology or social work who are working with patients with eating disorders would also find this a very useful guide....An interesting addition to the literature on the treatment of patients with eating disorders. It provides a step-by-step guide for implementing a new form of CBT for the treatment of all eating disorder psychopathology. Written by an expert in the field, this book is a great guide for all clinicians working with patients with eating disorders."--Journal of Psychiatric Practice

This review is from: Cognitive Behavior Therapy and Eating Disorders (Hardcover)
I did enjoy this treatment manuals theory and practice. It should be noted that this book, in practice, is not for a diagnosis anorexia nervosa. It does have a plan for that diagnosis, but does not seem to have the evidence to back it up from the trials that have been conducted. I think in the future as evidence grows this could be a promising treatment for all eating disorders. It does have a very intrigueing way of conceptualizing eating disorders in general. It will be exciting to see how this model actually plays out in practice.

This review is from: Cognitive Behavior Therapy and Eating Disorders (Hardcover)
This book is intended for the health professional, not for a parent such as myself. However, I found some of the basic principles to be very useful.
