“The Oxford Handbook of Eating Disorders” Offers Clinicians a Field-Wide Reference
Balle Balle Radio™ Entertainment Desk
W. Stewart Agras edited "The Oxford Handbook of Eating Disorders," which debuted in 2010 as a reference work covering the clinical and research landscape of eating disorders.
Agras is a psychiatrist whose academic career has centered on the study and treatment of eating disorders, including anorexia nervosa, bulimia nervosa and binge eating disorder. Oxford University Press handbooks of this kind are typically assembled from contributions by multiple specialists in a field, compiled under a single editor, rather than written cover to cover by one author. That structure fits a subject where research spans psychiatry, psychology, medicine and nutrition.
The subject classification of language arts and disciplines represents a broad academic category, not a reflection of the book’s actual focus, which centers on the clinical and scientific study of eating disorders.
Zafra Cooper of Oxford University’s Department of Psychiatry is quoted describing the volume as offering an up-to-date and comprehensive examination of the field offering detailed discussions of major topics. No additional detail on the book’s table of contents, contributing authors, or specific chapters accompanied the announcement.
Studio CarryOnHarry sees continued value in field-wide reference works like this one, particularly as research into eating disorders has expanded across multiple disciplines in the years since the book’s initial publication.
