Reviewer: Paul
I can relate to this illness, since I have suffered with B.E.D. for decades. This is the encouragement I need to "get out of B.E.D." and back into life. Thank you, Ms Bartlett.

Reviewer: Dr. Kay
The author of this wonderful book has written a resource with outstanding truth and clarity. This gem of a book takes the mystery out of BED and body image. I am confident this book will be of help not only to those facing the challenges of BED, but also has the potential to help family, friends, and professionals understand the complexities of this eating disorder. Well done!
