متن يادداشت
"Eating Disorders and Cultures in Transition is written by an international group of authors to address the recent emergence of eating disorders in various areas of the world including countries in South America, Asia, Africa and Eastern Europe." "It offers an in depth analysis of the existing socio-cultural model arguing for the need to extend both our theoretical understanding and clinical work to account properly for this global phenomenon. Eating disorders are seen as reflecting sweeping changes in the social and political status of women in the majority of societies that are now undergoing rapid cultural transition." "This multidisciplinary, multinational volume will be of great interest to medical and mental health professionals, public policy experts and all those interested in the impact of cultural transformation on mental health."--Jacket.
