Mary Levens takes the reader into the realm of magical thinking and its effect on ideas about eating and the body through a sensitive exploration of the images patients create in art therapy, in which themes of cannibalism constantly recur. Drawing on anthropology, religion and literature as well as psychoanalysis, she discusses the significance of these images and their implications for treatment of patients with eating disorders.< 606 $aEating disorders 606 $aArt therapy 615 0$aEating disorders. 615 0$aArt therapy. 676 $a616.85/26/06156 700 $aLevens$b Mary$f1957-$01684964 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910821884703321 996 $aEating disorders and magical control of the body$94056749 997 $aUNINA
