متن يادداشت

"Despite growing public awareness and a deepening medical understanding of eating disorders, these diseases continue to affect more and more people. Recent studies have also shown that eating disorders are much more common than previously thought among groups such as young men and African-American women. At the same time, an epidemic of obesity is currently affecting the United States, with approximately 65 percent of adults over the age of 20 considered overweight or obese and facing dangerous health risks, according to the Centers for Disease Control." "Drawing on in-depth, up-to-date research, The Encyclopedia of Obesity and Eating Disorders, Third Edition provides accessible information explaining the causes, nature symptoms, treatments, and impact of these serious problems. The third edition contains more than 450 entries, including many new and/or revised to cover the most current issues." "Complete with a history of obesity and eating disorders; chronology of key events, research, and breakthroughs; tables listing key facts and statistics; and a directory of resources and Web sites, this single-volume reference is the first stop in any serious research of these troubling heath afflictions."--BOOK JACKET.
