Product Description

Review

'An exceptionally experienced and expert clinician has given us an exceptionally useful book to guide boys and men in understanding and healing eating disorders, compulsive exercise, and uniquely male body image disorders.' - Arnold Andersen, Professor of Psychiatry, College of Medicine, University of Iowa, USA

'In The Invisible Man, John Morgan makes a powerful case for meeting the particular needs of men affected by eating disorders. It can be difficult for anyone to seek help - but the problem is so much greater for young men who develop what many people mistakenly consider is a female problem. Morgan combines theory and practical help in a highly readable style.' - Susan Ringwood Chief Executive Officer of beat

 

'Dr Morgan has recognised that men with eating disorders have particular needs and he addresses these in this excellent book. He has brought theory and practice together to develop a seamless approach which is cogent and powerful.' - Professor J Hubert Lacey, From the Foreword.

Morgan combines theory and practical help in a highly readable style." - Susan Ringwood, Chief Executive Officer of BEAT

"The book has many excellent attributes - none more so than the chapter on healthy habits, providing clinicians with some excellent tools with which to work. It is written in an informative style, without being overly academic. There is also an excellent resource section with some useful websites. This book will ensure that we can no longer use our lack of knowledge as an excuse for avoiding the problems of male eating disorders. Highly recommended." - Nursing Standard, April 22(34) 2008

"The Invisible Man" applies the latest research to produce a practical, problem-focused self-help manual for men with eating disorders and body image problems. Divided into four sections, this evidence-based survival kit covers: the wider cultural context of male body image problems features unique to men science fact and science fiction a 7 stage approach to treatment. By combining the science of cognitive behaviour therapy with motivational enhancement and problem-solving therapies, "The Invisible Man" will provide help to all men with body image disorders, as well as families and professionals involved in their care.

5.0 out of 5 stars worth waiting for, 22 Jun 2009
By Lindy Lou (Scotland) - See all my reviews
This book has filled the large gap in self-help literature for men with body image & eating disorders.
It is patient/user friendly, but written in a format that professionals will also find helpful when treating the increasing number of male sufferers.

5.0 out of 5 stars The Invisible Man: A Self-help Guide for Men with Eating Disorders, Compulsive Exercise and Bigorexia, 15 April 2008
I bought this book for a friend of mine who was very ill with a lot of mental health issues. He was so impressed, that he asked me to read it and give him my view on it.

I thought that this book for any man that has a problem with their identity and mental health problems should read this book.

As I love reading human-interest books in general. This book is the one that I would recommend for men to read.
