Abject relations: everyday worlds of anorexia

This book presents an alternative approach to anorexia. The author looks at the heart of what it means to live with anorexia on a daily basis, unravelling anorexia's complex relationships and contradictions. It departs from conventional psychotherapy approaches and offers a different 'logic', that involves the shifting forces of power, disgust, and desire and provides new ways of thinking that may have implications for future treatment regimes.
