Anorexia Nervosa: A Guide for Sufferers and Their Families, by R. L. Palmer. 1980 paperback. 156 pages, very nice condition.

Since the 1960s anorexia nervosa has been identified as a major cause of distress, and there has been a deluge of publications on the subject – but little of substance designed for the general public. This book defines the dietary chaos syndrome and the causes, physical and psychological characteristics, familial impact, and treatment of anorexia nervosa in nontechnical language intended for the anorexic, her family, and professional helpers.
