Question:

Good books about /eating disorders?

I've read Wasted by Marya Hornbacher and really enjoyed it. Does anyone know any other good books about eating disorders?


Best Answer - Chosen by Asker: "Wasted" is a frank personal memoir of Marya Hornbacher's struggle with Eating Disorders. I suppose, therefore, that you are looking for other personal memoirs about coping with Eating Disorders, rather than medical handbooks on the topic.

Books that meet that specification include (see links where available): -

"Life Without Ed: How One Woman Declared Independence from Her Eating Disorder and How You Can Too"
Author: Thom Rutledge, Jenni Schaefer

"Gaining: The Truth About Life After Eating Disorders"
Author: Aimee Liu

Beyond those two, there is a HUGE list of other Eating Disorders books at the Amazon link.
