5.0 out of 5 stars A compulsive read!, 1 Mar 2004
By A Customer
As somebody who has struggled my whole life with issues of weight, I found Marion Woodman's insights very helpful. The individual case studies were extremely honest and touched on many of the issues and emotions that have plagued my own life, allowing me to realise for the first time that problems with weight and alienation from the feminine are linked. Although not a comfortable read it was compulsive and I would recommend it to anyone struggling with obesity.

5.0 out of 5 stars Intelligent and thought provoking, 29 May 2007
By Taloula (London) - See all my reviews
An intelligent and thoroughly thought out book which really made me think further about my relationship with food and my life experiences in a way that counselling and the more superficial self help books have not. I started to see that my role models of the feminine were not so strong and that this is at the root of many eating disorders. I would think that this book is very helpful as a text for psychology students but for one who suffers from an eating disorder its the first book which has really made me explore the depths of my condition and think about what I could do next rather than feel trapped ina cycle and blame my 'laziness' for not being able to 'snap out of it!' Heavy going in places but worth the effort if you are after insight
