Title: powerful
Product review: This book was stunning. I completely disagree with some of the other reviewers who throught it was a how-to manual. The point, in my opinion, was to elucidate and drive home this excruciating and highly secret behavior for those of us who haven't been exposed to the despair of bulimirexia. If it opens the eyes of parents who have been telling their children to watch their weight to a potential outcome of their own behavior, so much the better. If one parent decides to reevaluate their groceries, their plumbing, or their frantically excersizing child, that would be a good thing. If therapists can learn from Marya's manipulative behavior and better assess and treat their own clients, there is benefit for everyone.I appreciated the opportunity to experience this book. I suspect it was a difficult and humiliating process to write.
