The moving stories in this book provide a new look at the experience of bulimia, showing that beyond its stigma as a negative and embarrassing illness it can prove to be an empowering life journey.This book is a must-read for both professional and lay readers: counsellors, psychologists, mental health professionals, those who are suffering or have suffered from an eating disorder and their friends and families.About the author:
Maria Stavrou has a BSc in Psychology. She lives in London.
