"""Your work is a tremendous source of information and support"" Daniel Le Grange, PhD, Professor in Children's Health, Eating Disorders Director, Department of Psychiatry, UCSF. Co-author of many books and scientific articles on Family-Based Treatment ""Therapists and other clinicians can learn from this book - not only about some of our own limitations and foibles that so often confuse and baffle the families we hope to help, but also about how we might better help families to understand those dilemmas and develop possible solutions to them."" James Lock, MD, PhD, Professor of Psychiatry and Pediatrics at Stanford University School of Medicine: Director of the Eating Disorder Program in the Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences. Co-author of many books and scientific articles on Family-Based Treatment ""Your book is packed with helpful information for parents and has been brilliant for my patients and for our team. It conveys the right message in an accessible way; that parents are an essential resource and with the right support can find their own strengths to support their child to recover."" Esther Blessitt, Senior Systemic Psychotherapist and co-author of the Maudsley service manual, writing on behalf of the Child and Adolescent Eating Disorders Service at the Maudsley Hospital, London From parents: ""The most practical advice I've ever come across."" ""The information in this book is lifesaving and if you had to gather all this information yourself it would take years. I have bought other books on the subject but I keep returning to this one. When I wake up in the middle of the night worrying I read this and feel reassured and empowered to carry on."" ""Each time I get a bit down, I read your advice and I'm filled with confidence."" ""These are just the practical tips that I need and that I feel a lot of books don't address, as they are so concerned with getting the kids away from death's door, but as we have discovered that is just a first step."""
