Outdated now, but still very helpful in learning how to approach counseling in EDs

I love this comprehensive resource. It does not sit with me that it is not weight-inclusive, which I hope will be updated in future editions.

A great reference book that I’ll definitely be going back to.

Having a new edition to be weight inclusive would make this 5 stars! Great medical reference otherwise
