The second edition of this Handbook provides an updated overview of the field of eating disorders including phenomenology of the eating disorders; epidemiology; sociological, psychological, and biological research pertinent to etiology; clinical and research assessment of the eating disorders; and prevention and treatment. Several new chapters describe emerging topics. Each chapter is written by an expert in the area reviewed, and the Handbook is directed toward graduate students, psychologists, and psychiatrists with a particular interest in eating disorders. Approaches to understanding the eating disorders range from cultural factors impacting eating and body size to a current understanding of the regulation of appetite and its relation to disordered eating. Other chapters review the evidence for psychosocial risk factors for the eating disorders, the roles of emotions and of dieting, and the current state of genetic research. Clinical issues are equally well represented, particularly current research into evidence-based treatments such as cognitive-behavioral therapy, interpersonal psychotherapy, family therapy, and emotion-based treatments such as dialectical behavior therapy. Clinical themes such as the use of the Internet and mobile applications intended to broaden access to treatment are also taken up in the section on emerging topics. Although evidence for effectiveness is not yet well established, it is expected that such evidence will develop rapidly over the next few years. A chapter on selective or picky eating has also been added, because it is a common and troublesome problem for parents and the research base has much expanded since the first edition of the Handbook
