"Anorexia" by Peggy Parks delves into the complexities of anorexia nervosa, an eating disorder characterized by an intense fear of gaining weight and a distorted body image, leading to severe food restriction and weight loss. Parks thoroughly examines the psychological, emotional, and physical dimensions of the disorder, exploring factors such as societal beauty standards, psychological issues, and possible genetic influences. The book outlines the signs and symptoms of anorexia, including extreme weight loss, preoccupation with food, dieting, and body image, as well as the potential physical repercussions such as malnutrition, bone density loss, and cardiovascular complications. Parks also discusses the mental health challenges associated with anorexia, like anxiety, depression, and obsessive-compulsive behaviors.
