Father Hunger: Fathers, Daughters, and the Pursuit of Thinness (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780936077499)

This book pioneered the term "father hunger" -- the emptiness, and resulting food and body image disorders, experienced by women whose fathers were physically or emotionally absent. Based on ten years of further study, this second edition of Father Hunger details the origins of the syndrome and its effect on the family, with new practical solutions to help dads and daughters understand and improve their relationships. An expanded section for educators and therapists offers strategies and techniques for preventing and treating this complex problem.
