About Julia Buckroyd
Julia Buckroyd and Sharon Rother seek to understand the psychological meaning of eating behaviour, a focus that conventional obesity treatments tend to neglect. Based on substantial research, this volume presents a programme that will aid clinicians in using a psychologically-informed group treatment for those individuals whose eating is largely emotionally driven.
