Book Reviews of Susie Orbach on Eating

Book Review: A brilliant and reader-friendly book
Summary: 5 Stars

Susie Orbach is one of two pioneers (the other is Geneen Roth) who, in the 1980s produced her ground-breaking books: Fat is a Feminist Issue I & II. In this book she very clearly outlines the critical factors one needs to employ to overcome any type of overeating problem: binge-eating, or just plain overeating. I am a psychologist who has treated many individuals with various forms of binge and emotional-eating problems and I have bought and sold (at cost) over 60 of these books to my clients. Currently I am conducting an 8-week psycho-educational group for women who want to overcome emotional eating and I have asked each of them to purchase and use this book as a guide. They are all impressed by it.

I especially like that it is so accessible, even to people who aren't fond of reading. It's not necessary to read from front to back, but can be picked up, at any page, and read, with some positive and helpful suggestion for the reader. I cannot say enough how important this work is and how sad it is that so many "diets" continue to flourish when this simple treatment is the only one I have seen be truely effective with this increasingly common problem.
