Chapter 8 discusses eating disorders, and focuses on anorexia nervosa and bulimia nervosa. It outlines their clinical features, stages of cognitive–behavioural treatment methods (including the elimination of dieting, cognitive restructuring, addressing cognitive distortions, problem-solving training, and addressing body image misperception), subgroups of patients with bulimia nervosa that may require special consideration, group therapy, in-patient treatment, and the use of drugs in treatment.

Two cases involving the cognitive-behavioural treatment of hallucinations are described. In both cases, a focusing strategy was used with a view to enabling patients to reattribute the nature and meaning of their experiences. One patient showed a marked reduction in the frequency and content of his voices. The second patient showed little change. The implications of observations made during therapy for the future development of cognitive-behavioural strategies for use with psychotic patients are discussed.
