"In Is Your Child Dying To Be Thin? A Workbook for Parents and Family Members on Eating Disorders, Goodman draws upon her experience with persons afflicted with eating disorders and their families to address these feelings. In clear layman's terms, she outlines the symptoms of three major eating disorders - anorexia nervosa, bulimia, and compulsive overeating - and discusses the various factors which contribute to the development of these disorders, highlighting various treatment approaches. Simple questionnaires, worksheets, Dos and Don'ts, and suggested further readings make it possible for family members to become educated and involved in the patient's recovery."--From back cover.
