Addressing Eating Disorders in the Book of the Day

Reports from campuses are saying that students are having a harder time not just financially, but also emotionally. Because of this, the rise in disorders or behaviors with stigmas attached means that we all need to understand what people around us might be going through.

More importantly, the book can assist people in beginning the process towards recovery.
